The Mountains Are Calling is the exhilarating story of the runners who go to high places. From its wild origins in the Highlands, hill running in Scotland remains as pure and traditional as sport gets. Jonny Muir explores the history and culture of the sport, and meets the legends of hill running who are revered for their extraordinary endurance. As he discovers the insatiable lure of the hills, a calling leads him to the supreme test of mountain running: Ramsay's Round a continuous loop of 23 of Scotland highest mountains, to be completed within 24 hours.©2018 Jonny Muir (P)2018 W.

Good well informed book on Scottish Hill Running, but seriously dodgy pronunciation of all hill names and areas.

Book good, pronunciation very bad!

Narrators pronunciation of the Scottish locations and some words in this book varies, and in some places its absolutely awful. It can be quite off putting, although the content of the actual book is very good. Should have bought a hard copy.

I had a hard copy of this book already and loved it so when I saw you could get the audio version at a great price I went for it as I like audio books /podcasts while driving or out walking sometimes.
This wonderful book was spoiled somewhat by the narrator’s dreadful pronunciation of Scottish places, names and gaelic words. Coupled with cringemaking attempts at local accents sadly reduced my enjoyment of this audio book. At times it sounded as though the book was being read by a ‘sat nav’ computerised voice. Really weird.
I prefer audio books to be read by the author wherever possible but I appreciate not everyone has the ability to create an effective voice over. Maybe I’m being picky but I want to hear the correct pronounciation of places and names regardless of the country of origin.
Otherwise a very entertaining and inspiring book which I recommend to everyone interested in hills and running.

Great book about Scottish Hill running

I will probably buy the book, I just can't listen to the pronunciation which at times is awful at best. Good story worth completing but better read than heard.

it's a no from me

I enjoyed this book on my fjellruns. It could have been even longer. Great listen!
