T&FN Needs Your Help In Choosing Cover

[gh]

What with an Olympic Trials 1500 Preview being in the February issue we're just completely stuck on which of two guys should be the cover, so we thought we'd ask for your help. Please vote here. Would you rather have...... Gabe or Alan?

Seems to me the only person we have entering the season who is truly world class over 1500 (and 800 for that matter) is Krummenacker ... Why even mention Gabe (he's not even sure who he is) .. And while I still believe Webb is the future of the event, it would seem that Krummenacker is the now ...

Sure. When can I start on the re-designing work?

Lol. This is like one of those "who would win a marathon-Ritz or Webb?" threads on letsrun.

Re: T&FN Needs Your Help In Choosing Cover

hi... um I'm a teenager(14) and fascinated with your magazine! thank you so much for putting great information and AWESOME pictures for my room in your magazine. It's just been a joy every single month to get your magazine. To me, you should put Alan Webb on the cover. Everyone last year got mad for some reason about reading about gabe and i think they are all "gabed" out. They haven't heard about Alan Webb in awhile so i think it would appeal to people and they would want to jump right into it. But since your covers are always so nice i guess me personally would want alan webb because he is more of a role model for me than gabe.
hopefully i was help to you from a teens point of view.

p.s. are you ever going to put Dathan Ritzenhein as a centerfold poster??? I want that sooo bad. thanks

How about a picture of Lunn and Stember battling it out in last years wc trials. How about a picture of Robison in full stride with the caption "is he ready to step up".
How about a picture of the top US 1500 meter runners inside deck of cards.

"They haven't heard about Alan Webb in awhile "

I'm with you Rob! I'm going into withdrawal with no 100-post threads in years! Seriously though, I vote for Webb too, with the caption, "Once and Future King?"

Re: T&FN Needs Your Help In Choosing Cover

Shouldn't the picture on the cover be one who has a good chance to win a gold medal?
I nominate Marion Jones, Allen Johnson, Tom Pappas, or Stacy Dragila.

Re: T&FN Needs Your Help In Choosing Cover

Have Tom Pappas on the cover with the caption "worlds best athlete?

Re: T&FN Needs Your Help In Choosing Cover

How about BATHING SUIT ISSUE like SI?

Re: T&FN Needs Your Help In Choosing Cover

While I know this isn't really answering your question, I vote to put both of them on the cover, preferably a pic. of them racing each other, if there is any.

Re: T&FN Needs Your Help In Choosing Cover

A cover with Justin GATLIN would have been much
more judicious, for example.
But these two (sorry I don't remember their
names) runners obviously seem to deserve it
better...
