Goes some way to explain the appeal of MM's but more likely just re-inforce folks opionion that "they're all nutters".

In reply to SFM: great piece in the times - p26. "I don't know much about fell running, but I know what I don't like- the sensationalised scaremongering surrounding the washed out OMM"

Good lad, Mick Hume.

In reply to SFM: "but all involve, by definition, the dangers and discomforts of the mountains. Few of the thousands of hours I have spent running in the fells have not involved being cold, or wet, or lost, or frightened, or injured, or exhausted to the point of delirium, or several or all of these."

way to sell the sport!

Good article!

In reply to SFM: good yes - chunks of it listes verbatim from his book, like, but no worse for all that

won't hurt the sales either i'd guess
