Totally agree, I’ve run with guys who did some phenomenal things both on the fells and on the roads in their youth, if they’d been born 60 years later then perhaps they would have been contracted to run for some company or other, but I’ve never heard any of them lament the fact that this never happened, they just enjoyed the running for what it was and still is, generally a great day out with other like minded folk, I’m sure that Salomon/ Inov8 or whoever would have been hammering on Billy Blands door if he was running today, does this fact bother him? I would guess no
