At some stage it would be good to take the Bob Graham material, and other stuff on the venerable history the Lakes 24-hour records, into a separate article I think.- Linuxlad 13:19, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Should we bring Mountain Marathon onto this page? - Eddie 11:46, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Should we give Mountain Running, that's more international, it's own page? - Eddie 11:46, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
The latest addition is clearly by an enthusiast but is NOT NPOV in my opinion. It takes the voice of 'the writer' and includes a section 'could you do it?' Needs a substantial rewrite to be neutral, I suggest. Linuxlad 08:32, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
I have put up more headings, and because of this there is no longer a need for a manually inserted Table of Contents. As you can see, however, there are two sections titled 'History'. This is because it is addressed in both the introduction and the conclusion it seems. I think these should be fused. It's up to you guys whether or not you want it at the start or end.

These particular type of events are not mentioned under any of the Fell Running headings but are a paticular branch of the sport that does attract a great deal of interest amongst fell runners. This type of event often acts as a relatively 'safe' introduction to the sport for new comers, as each relay leg, more often than not, is run as a pairing of runners.

When considering the second paragraph of this article and the description of mountain running by the World Mountain Running Association ( see here), we can see that fell and mountain running are slightly different things.
The two have plenty of things in common, but the need for navigational skills sets them apart – mountain running is much more like cross country running, albeit over steep inclines. Mountain running is competing over a set and "defined path"; the so-called Route choice is entirely absent.
The separation of governing bodies makes the distinction more apparent, and the IAAF has recently incorporated mountain running into the group of athletics. This is not just a technical matter, however, as it is clear that the ethos of mountain running is pretty much identical to that of road running and cross country, just that a steep incline is an additional obstacle.
I shall look to split and create a new article for mountain running if nobody minds. Sillyfolkboy ( talk) ( edits) Join WikiProject Athletics! 11:07, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

As someone not acquainted with the sport, I'm not clear what's meant by the following sentence in the section Rocks
It might be resolved with by linking the term to an appropriate article, but I don't see which one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.240.146.135 ( talk) 05:50, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
As someone acquainted with the sport, I don't get that either. I removed it. That whole section suffered from a bit of wordiness. — Preceding
