The running belay is an old technique that is still occasionally used for the time it save. Both climbers tie in and move simultaneously. There is no belayer. The leader places occasional protection and clips the rope through it. In a fall, the rope-running through the protection-will be held at some point by the weight of the other climber, because the rope is tied to both climbers’ harnesses and neither is anchored....
