It's probably Britain's most obscure sport. It's certainly its maddest. But fell-running - the practice of racing up and down trackless mountains in all weathers - is also one of the last sports to remain utterly true to its roots. In this evocative account of a season on the fells, Richard Askwith explores fell-running in the most authentic way: by putting on his studded boots and running as many of the great races as possible, from Borrowdale to Ben Nevis.
