  • What's Up at Runner's World?

    Marty Post and several other long-time staffers are getting the boot. Anybody know what's going on?

      Did the Penguin get promoted to editor and fire everyone that could ran faster than him?

        I noticed that the rag had a new editor, and that it was a better read over the last two issues than had been the case for quite a long time. For example, Kenny Moore wrote about Oslo's stadium in the last issue -- a writer and a topic that appeal to a more "hard-core" audience. There's still fluff, but there's a wider variety of articles than had been the norm.

        I think our complaints were heard.

            I think Runner's World should be fired

              I have found Runner's world a rather dull read in the last few years. Too many stories about average joes and the latest running shoes. Why can't they cover more of the elite scene.

              The problem with Track and Field News is that you cannot find it anywhere.

                Buzz on the street says that anybody who has any connection with real track (as opposed to jogging) is going to be cashiered.

                  I read an article a few years ago in Runners World that advised marathon runners to take cameras with during the race and to stop and take pictures of noteworthy sites.

                  The article emphasized that you should STOP running while taking pictures to ensure that the photos are not blurry.

                  I resolved that I would never again read a single word of a single article in Runners World.

                    There is a picture of the girl who won the Toronto Marathon in the local rag today(actually in a time that would impress a bunch of people that I was arguing with on another thread). But here's the thing. She has various and sundry audio
                    visual equipment on her head.

                      As limited as the print magazine's coverage of the elite end of the sport was , the RW online website is a real contribution to the sport. I hope it continues at the same level. Marty Post deserves our thanks for it.
