When did the running community develop a need for gendered magazines like that? Awful. I seriously hope it bombs.
@SteveCooke I was told by a rep involved with Runner's World that the mag sells 1/3 more copies if they put a "hot girl" on front cover.

@PhilosophyExp I'm both astonished & irritated by that. -
@SteveCooke This was a while ago, not sure if it's still true. But... well, take a look here: http://bit.ly/1bQPxhW -
@PhilosophyExp Wow! That is really quite something. I wonder at the psychology of runners now. -
@SteveCooke Sex sells. Not sure if runners are particularly peculiar in that respect! :) -
@PhilosophyExp indisputably true, but I just find it weird that it doesn't seem to matter what the product is! -
@SteveCooke Body-image stuff & running - highly correlated. Running forums are full of people interested primarily in weight control.
