in january i'm going to do a 5mile fell race for the first time, and i was wondering should i buy special shoes, or will off road trainers be ok? i have some adidad trail lite ones which i've had for several winters, they only get used when it's really slippy or muddy, would these be ok or should i get some ones with studs or something?

er do women not run fells then or do they have to stick on beards like in Monty Python!
ed-not sure on my response !
But, as you said, it is your first race so maybe see if you enjoy the experience first before spending 50 quid+ on fell shoes
PS I took part in a 10 mile fell race in foul conditions a few years ago and the winning veteran lady not only had no beard but kept her hair and make up intact throughought the race. How?
ladies with beards are ok
very feminine (looking) blokes are ok
lets be nice people again!
