WELCOME TO 2009!

Welcome to the Running Network LLC Media Buyers Guide for 2009! Our media guide is designed to educate you about our magazines, editorial focus, readership, and the uniqueness of our diverse list of publications. Whether you choose to advertise in one or all of our 24 partner publications, or take advantage of our 26 partner Websites, we can assure you that your advertising message is reaching your desired audience.

With over 700,000 bimonthly readers and 2 million unique monthly visitors to our combined Websites, the Running Network LLC is your gateway to the running community.

Sixteen regional and eight national publications give us complete geographical coverage in the United States, Canada, Central and South America.

Among our adult readers, who number more than 500,000, nearly 45 percent are women. Our readers run an average of 25 miles per week, race 12–16 times per year (including 1–2 marathon finishes) and purchase 3–4 pair of running shoes within that year.

Our younger readers (325,000) run 6 times per week, 46 weeks per year, race 32 times per year and purchase 5 pair of running shoes annually.

Over 90 percent of our circulation is direct-mailed through paid or requested status to the homes of our readers. More than 70 percent are professionals with household incomes more than $80,000. Most importantly, the Running Network is your opportunity to reach the most devoted enthusiasts in the grassroots running communities.

The sport of running has evolved, and so has the Running Network. We started our websites in 1996, blogging in 2007 and twittering in 2008. As the world of media continues to evolve, specialty magazines, websites, blogging and social networking will evolve. Social networks are nothing new—specialty magazines have been doing that for decades! The options now, with mobile phones, twitter.com, blogging, digital TV, and websites plus our print publications continue to focus on one theme—enhance the relationship between our readers and their local running community. The various media platforms of the Running Network have helped create and reinforce an atmosphere where runners are influencers and where the key channel in our world is the specialty running store.

We are confident, no matter how small your budget, that we can help you target your potential consumer in a unique way, to reach your sales goals. In these economic times, advertising and marketing is not only keeping your brand in the face of present day consumers, but also building your future. Astute brands and companies are increasing their marketing and advertising plans in 2009–2010, not decreasing.

Notice the picture I choose on the top of the page. It is from my trip to Beijing last year, to cover the 2008 Olympics. Our readership on our sites went through the roof, as it does around Boston, New York, Berlin, Chicago and London, because our readers are fascinated with the world around them and how our sport is seen both globally as well as locally. The Running Network LLC is geared to provide our readers with the information that they need to be better runners, more informed consumers and more involved in the sport that they love.

We hope that you can join us in this pursuit.

Call us for samples of any or all of our publications and visit our Website at www.RUNNINGNETWORK.com for links to all of our Websites.

We look forward to talking with you soon!

Established in 1998, the RN Shoe Reviews and Features give our readers independent editorial reviews of the top running footwear six times a year (January, March, May, July, September, November). The Spring and Fall Reviews focus on performance running training footwear, the reviews in January and July focus on Trail, the May review is Best Shoes under $80 and a review of Quarter 2 and Quarter 4 shoes are also available in July and December. (For our prep titles, we also review XC Racing Shoes, Track spikes and team apparel.)

The Shoe Reviews are two to six pages in length. Cregg Weinmann, the RN footwear reviewer, manages a team of 350 wear testers, who are rigorously tested by a podiatrist to determine the correct shoe category for their involvement. The wear testers compile both anecdotal and quantitive results on a proprietary website, developed by Weinmann and his team, using a unique software application. This information then edited by Christine Johnson, designed by Kristen Cerer and proofed by Marg Sumner, and the reviews are then provided to our publications. We see the reviews as the starting point in the runners' journey to find their perfect running shoe. We also recommend that they go to their local specialty running store as we support the IRRA, Independent Running Retailers Association.

Please note that in the second half of 2009, our reviews will also be available on the web as well as a new feature, a weekly new product feature on www.runnningnetwork.com.
