Has anyone an tips as this will be my first fell.

I run 10ks in approx 45 to 48 minutes.
No tarmac, all fell so 'proper' fell shoes are the best option on this one. Quite a tight start with restricted overtaking for a short while. When you see the monument, that's when you will be heading downhill and will be thankfull for the grip of a studded shoe. After the climb back up, you return by the same path on which you ran out. Pub just over the road, enjoy.
