We were called by Cockermouth Team, who had been called by the police about a competitor in the Lakeland 100 race. The reports stated he had collapsed and was unresponsive, about a mile from Wasdale Head towards Black Sail.
The team deployed and as a precautionary measure, talked to the race marshalls at the Wasdale Head checkpoint. Thankfully, the runner was back at Wasdale Head having been helped off the hill by others. He was assessed by an ambulance crew and discharged, after which the team stood down.
