Brilliant Book:Fell Running

[COUGAR]

I've just ordered a copy using the code Graham suggested, it seemed to work.

It's a good book. It deserves a wider readership!

e.

I've not read it, but if they want a bigger readership they should shift their target audience. Fell runners know what racing is like, its the others who don't. Look at Fitc, that sold far far wider than the fell running community, I think this book would to. We've found with our business that walkers like to book fell running guides and love asking about races. I think the hill walking community would jump all over this sort of book. It seems perfect for those wanting to know what fell racing is like, especially as its written by many mid pack runners.

Personally I'd advertise on http://www.mountain.rescue.org.uk/ and general hill walking websites like outdoorsmagic even some of the climbing sites.

Get some of the walking mags to review it if it hasn't been done. TGO, trail et al are always looking for other articles. Also Summit and then the more general running mags like runners world and running fitness.

Also fell runners are tight :-)
