The suggested fell fixtures can be found via the calendar search here and in the Facebook group however *any* race in the 2018 FRA calendar which is run under FRA rules will be considered in the final league tables.

The fell league has its own website found here

Fell Rules;
League tables, due to the complexity of calculations, are not created automatically on this website, but rather published separately by the fell league organiser in a method TBC.
If a race is also in another league each league will apply it's own rules meaning you may qualify in 1 league but not the other for the same race. There will always be a way to score in both.
● Points will be awarded only to runners who register at the event as members of Long Eaton Running Club
● Points are awarded in the form of a percentage of the category winners time.
● Points are awarded for the ladies section and mens section separately
● Club colours are desirable but not compulsory in order for points to be awarded
● The best 8 performances are considered in compiling the final totals(must include 1 short, one medium and 1 long race)
● There is a minimum of 8 races to qualify for any prize.
● Tied positions decided by head to head performance > total points

Prizes;
Prizes are awarded to the first 3 positions in the following closed categories : SM,M40,M50,M60,SF,F35,F45,F55.

● Fell Running is a very environmentally conscious pastime and car sharing is heavily encouraged.
● Competitors should arrive at races prepared to carry any or all of the following equipment:-
● Windproof whole body cover
● Other body cover appropriate for the weather conditions
● Map and compass suitable for navigating the course
● Whistle
● Emergency food

These requirements constitute best practice and are mandatory at all Category A Long and Medium races. In the event of settled fine weather, confirmed by a local weather report, the organiser may decide to waive some of the above requirements for races of other categories. Organisers ensure that whatever requirements they specify on the day are met by holding complete and random checks before and after the start of races. Race organisers should be aware of the dangers of hypothermia if injury to runners causes them to stop or slow to a walking pace. Body heat is lost quickly and in cold, wet or windy weather the onset of hypothermia can be very rapid unless sufficient warm clothing is carried. This factor should influence decisions on the extra equipment runners are required to carry in poor or unsettled weather conditions. If necessary the fact that the weather creates a high risk of hypothermia should be stressed to competitors.
