Voices From the Hills by Steve Chilton is a history of female participation in mountain running, a development that was fiercely resisted in its early years.
‘A must read for anyone with a passion for women’s equality and sport.’ Sue AnstissVoices from the Hills is the story of the barriers encountered by the first female fell runners who fought to participate in the early days of this male-dominated sport. Despite experiencing discouragement and resistance, these women responded with personal courage and self-confidence. Thanks to them, women now compete at traditional fell races, international mountain races and endurance challenges such as the Bob Graham Round in increasing numbers.Told predominantly through interviews with pioneering female athletes who recount their lives and running careers, this is the story of a fight for equality of opportunity and reward.
