How'd I overlook that url in all the stuff I've poked
through over the last couple years 😉 Thanks.

I would. UR coves gear also and quite well.
done. (Natural History subscription bit the dust to keep
total subscriptions constant 😉 I have a feeling there may
be some overlap with book, but we'll see.
I never took a subscription
Quoted message said:to TR and the few that I did read, including the one on
massage that I was interviewed and quoted, I found too
superficial almost like Runner's world. I have not looked
in over a year so maybe it has moved from the 098 to the
099 level. 😉
The massage issue was my first issue, and yes, most of the
articles are of that flavor - sound (er, text) bites from
multiple interviews strung together into an article 🙁 Keep
in mind, I was at 010 level, if that, when starting so a 098
or 099 level mag is about right 😉 It does have ads for
things like running camps or trips, that I might find useful
and didn't know they existed. As I've mentioned before, some
articles read like abstracts, but they do either stimulate a
thought or provide an index for me to go look for more
information on the subject. I'm ignorant enough about a lot
of things that I have to know it exists, before I can search
for it on web. The articles are at least relevant.
Things, like, yea, it's ok to do speed work on trails
(suitable for one's abilities or lack thereof), esp. if
you're gonna race on trails. Don't need no lane lines or
distances for those things if training by effort - which is
the way most primary articles are written (usually relative
to LT or VO2max or something, not pace), at least the ones
I've seen. What I do is mix ideas from TR with more detailed
information from RRN and PP to get the normal workouts with
a trail spin. Hey, works for
me 🙂 I've never seen ss running in RRN or PP so I need TR
or the new ss e-mag for some stimulation of thinking
outside the traditional box.
But you'll never mistake a TR cover for Cosmpopolitan 🙂 In
RW, for me, the topics aren't even interesting enough to
bother reading (and that was before I started trails). Other
than last year they had an article on Mt. Marathon, and I
actually bought that one for the pictures.
Thanks again.
