I want to subscribe to a running magazine. The only one I can think of is Runners World. Any others worth mentioning?

I'd take Running Times over Runner's World in a heartbeat. Too much fluff in RW.

I don't have Running Times nor have I read it, but there is quite a bit of fluff in Runner's World. The most recent issue, though, had a nice article about a group that went over to run with the Kenyans.

Running Times is better than Runners World (although I usually read both.)
I also enjoy "Marathons and Beyond" which comes out every two months.

Does anyone know if there are any runners magazine that are purely talking about training tips and competition?
I really don't want to read about a family running together, that is awesome, but im not goign to pay for a magazine to read that.

Really...I don't mean to be a broken record about ebay...but there are Running Times and Runner's World subscriptions for a year on there for $4-$6. Do a search on the magazine name...heck, any magazine is on there right now.
I think I'll get about a decade ahead on my renewals while I can

If you want to lose weight, go for Runner's World.
If you are interested in actually running go for Running Times.
I cancled my subscription to RW because every article is about losing weight, I just got so tired of it.
