During the last few weeks of challenging weather I have noticed a significantly higher number of female runners out on the hills in whatever nature has thrown at us, highest count being 8 females to 1 male on a 90 minute jaunt during the desmond onslaught.
So is there now statistically more female hill runners than men? if that is the case then the increase has been fast as there were plenty of blokes before the winter kicked in with it`s dark wet windy mornings and nights.
