# fra_races

This repo contains a (.ics) calendar file containing details of fell races (mostly) in England as listed on the Fell Runners Association (FRA) website. Hopefully the calendar will be updated relatively regularly (aiming for the 1st and 14th of each month). There is also the python script used to generate the code. It's not commented and rather poor so folk who are more talented can have a go at making a less bad job of it that I. I think I've caught most of the issues that might cause the creation of the calendar file to break (mainly to do with date/time - some races don't have one - which is good -, and location (for some reason it just won't behave so I've left the exact location out. Look on the web though). There is some missing information and/or races, so I'd suggest using the "official" means to check. I've set the start time to the time listed on the calendar, with a duration of two hours for all events.

This repo contains a (.ics) calendar file containing details of fell races (mostly) in England as listed on the Fell Runners Association (FRA) website. Hopefully the calendar will be updated relatively regularly (aiming for the 1st and 17th of each month, using GitHub actions). I've also included the python script used to generate the calendar. It's not commented and rather poor so folk who are more talented can have a go at making a less bad job of it than me. I think I've caught most of the issues that might cause the creation of the calendar file to break (mainly to do with date/time - some races don't have one - which is good -, and location (for some reason it just won't behave so I've left the exact location out.

I should add this repo is completely unofficial and nothing to do with the FRA. For full up to date information, you should consult the FRA handbook and/or the online calendar at https://races.fellrunner.org.uk/races/. You do not have to be a member of the FRA, or a running club in order to race in most fell races (exceptions include things like relay events).
