It’s a Hill, Get Over It is Steve Chilton's illuminating and entertaining history of fell running - one athletics' most demanding sports. Includes inspirational interviews with well-known fell runners.
It’s a Hill, Get Over It tells the story of fell running from its nineteenth-century origins to the present day. Exponents of the sport through the ages have maintained not only an amateur ethos, but also a wariness of change and public attention. As a result, many of their greatest achievements have not always been given the credit they deserve.
To complete this detailed history, Steve Chilton has included in-depth conversations with many of the greats including Tommy Sedgwick, Jeff Norman, Pauline and Kenny Stewart, Helene Whitaker and Rob Jebb.

Steve is also a former Chair of the Society of Cartographers and of the ICA Commission in Neocartography.
