Sledging and running?

Hello,

I am going to do the Great Winter Run, a 5km race or fun run around Arthurs seat in Edinburgh. Half of the run is up hill and half is down hill.

Generally in ra ace there are rules regarding things like in line skates, cycles etc.. however nothing about sledging. Now for all of you not in Edinburgh this week, it is quite snowy. So what might the rules be for running up the hill and then sledging down the hill for the rest of the course?

I am prepared of course to use a plastic bag instead of the sledge

What are your thoughts - cheating or just making a fun run more fun?

    Surely if its a fun run and not for financial gain (i.e. a cash prize) it would be OK? I would certainly find it hilarious if a runner in front of me whipped out a plastic bag and sledged down a hill on it!!!!
