I'm assuming all events in the calendar, but want to be certain. And a second silly question. If an event is listed on the FRA website events listing, then by definition that event is covered by FRA rules?

If a race is listed in the Calendar with an "R" it is Permitted and Insured through the FRA. (see page 11). Some races, eg in Scotland, would not be.

Every RO who seeks a Permitted listing in the Calendar signs an agreement that he will comply with FRA Rules.

Every competitor agrees, if they use the FRA entry form pp16-18, and not the back of an envelope, to comply with FRA Rules.

(This begs the question of whether or not RO who do not use the FRA race entry form breach the FRA Rules but it is very late...)

Fell running is very simple. I understand it. And I, or Jim or Duncan or Margaret will be delighted to answer any questions that you have.
