No unless the RO asks for extra, Take one with you to the start...it can be left in the kit back for the finish...Originally Posted by Will_B

Kit to be worn or carried:
Full waterproof jacket and bottoms (with taped seams), long sleeved top, head torch, emergency bag or blanket, hat and gloves, map (the Dark Peak map which just excludes Marsden is acceptable) compass, whistle and some emergency food is the minimum kit.
There will be a full kit check before Registration giving everybody the chance to make sure they have the required kit. There will be spot checks on route and at the finish. The FRA have made it clear that not carrying the required kit will result in a ban from all fell races and we will uphold that policy.
Minimum being the key word. Not sure if you were Racing at the time of the Famous Skyline Will but the front end of the race really suffered as they skimped on kit whereas those at the back realised they would be out for a while and took extra and were mostly fine.
The route is very exposed from Bleaklow until you drop off Kinder....
