My first fell race was a Peaks BS.... Bamford Sheepdog Trials... turned up in a pair of cheap trail shoes and an MMA Rashguard (a skin tight and very sweat-inducing top).
Remember being frustrated on the climb up Parkin Clough that there was no room to overtake. Then initially being a little overawed by the immediate descent off the summit of Win Hill, losing a handful of places immediately, before getting myself together.
That remains the only BS race i've ever done... although did do a CS at Tour Of Llyn Lydaw last new year's day which is quite a unique and interesting race.
