I have followed fell runners who have def not carried kit

There are a lot out there who put nowt in it. You can clearly see that to carry full kit your bumbag should be pretty full. In fact i struggle to zip mine up.
You see runners with a pete bland bumbag thats flat, empty.
They are the ones that piss me off.

The saddleworth races had a more strict kit check Ian than at edale.

Personally I know that if i fall even on a hot day i have all my gear and will hopefully be okay until help arrives.
