    After everything you've said about the responsibility falling on the runner you still support RO stipulating minimum kit requirements to protect people from themselves. And so we have a spectacle where a runner on the AW gets DQ for using his own judgement which is not the judgement of the RO. You see AI you can't have it both ways and if you do you contradict yourself.

    One last point: when your motive is just to protect RO then I have to question whether that actually coincides with doing what is right for competitors.
    What you missed is the kit rule came from SHR as part of the RO's pack of instruction ( under review as we debate) if I wanted insurance that's what had to be done - if you want to race we need the insurance.
    Simples.....
    As I said before. He read the disclaimer - agreed to it then changed his mind... Hence the DQ - the life ban was for causing a miscount at all the checkpoints which in other circumstances could have been fatal for a runner and compromised both my marshals and us.
    And you think that's alright????
