Lonsdale Fell Runners

Safety on the Fells

Lonsdale Fell Runners is an informal gathering of like minded individuals who enjoy the sport of fell running,we are affiliated but have no rules or constitution and any runners who choose to run with the group do so as an individual and entirely at their own risk.

All runners should do their own personal risk assessment before venturing on to the fells.The risks to be considered include:- The weather,conditions underfoot,length/degree of difficulty,daylight hours and your own personal fitness.

Members who pay their £6/year fees are covered 3rd party insurance,which means if you fall and hurt yourself you get nothing,but if you fall and dislodge a rock that injures some-one else then that person is able to make a claim on the insurance.

Despite the comments above, running with a group is preferable to solo running.
