GPS in fell races

[Graham Breeze]

Moral Advice Sought For A Friend Who

Is entering a Championship Counter he has never run but he does own a Garmin.

Is a personal friend of the multi-time winner of said race who has agreed to walk him round the optimum line so he can record optimum route on his Garmin.

Then on race day even if the clag is down to two yards he will be inch perfect in his route finding and pass all those faster runners floundering in the mist.

My friend knows there is no rule against his planned approach but he is seeking moral guidance ie does his planned approach have the support of the Forum fell running community?
