I'm not a fan of trods becoming 'trodden in' as you say - there are lines up on the edge of Bleaklow which are clearly visible from my house about 4km away. These are trods, not paths marked on maps. I'm personally not a fan of running on rough ground but I'm doing my best to avoid the lines which are getting well worn.
