Description

Billy Bland's life story is one of remarkable achievement and deep connection with the natural world. As a fellrunner extraordinaire, he holds many records, including that of the Bob Graham Round, which was later broken by Kilian Jornet. This memoir also explores the unique character and lifestyle of Borrowdale in the English Lake District, where fellrunning is an integral part of the community. Through stories of competition and rich in northern humor, All or Nothing At All offers a glimpse into the life spent in the fells by one of their greatest champions. The book is a testament to Billy Bland's remarkable life, filled with tales of adventure and the people who inhabit this beautiful region. This memoir provides an insight into the world of fellrunning and the special bond between its practitioners and the landscapes they run through.
