It's a Hill, Get Over It

A new paperback edition of Steve Chilton's illuminating and entertaining history of hill running, one of athletics' most demanding sports, as well as the most demandingly amateur.

The first, It’s a Hill, Get Over It, won the Bill Rollinson Prize for Landscape and Tradition. He is a long-time member of the Fellrunners Association. He has run in many of the classic fell races, as well as mountain marathons, and has completed the Cuillin Traverse.
