Dartmoor Runner's events often involve extreme conditions and
hardship. They are not "Fun
runs". All runners should be
experienced in running over rough terrain and be competent to navigate in bad
weather. Full body cover, map, compass,
whistle, hat and gloves should be carried.
The organisers cannot be held responsible for a runner's safety after a
runner has left the start.
Runners must respect private property and respect the rights of
other moor users during these events.
Registration Registration for all runs will be from 0930 to 1030
on the day of the event. Cost will be
£2.00 per run. Late registrations will
not be accepted. Courses will be closed
at 1400. Any runner who has not
completed the course by 1400 will be deemed to have retired.
All runners must return to the start and let the planner know
that they are safely off the moor even if they have not completed the course.
The use of GPS during any of these events is forbidden. Its use runs contrary to the spirit of
Dartmoor Runners and would negate the navigational challenge, an essential part
of these events. As some people
consider GPS to be a sound safety precaution it may be carried but only used to
navigate off the moor after a retirement.
