New Improved Runners World

I was discussing how repetitive and boring RW magazine was with my 6 year old daughter and she suggested some great ideas :-

1. Design your own running shoes - an article would describe how to buy some plain white running shoes and how to customise them using felt tip pens, stick-on sequins etc. She suggested some suitable themes might be Barbie Princess for the ladies and Star Wars for the men.

2. Make your own waterproof cap - a freebie on the front cover would be a peice of polythene marked out where it could be cut and glued or taped together to make a free waterproof baseball cap.

3. Fictional stories e.g. the man that runs 10,000 miles a day...

Perhaps you can see where the inspiration is coming from, but she assures me that you would read it until August with all that in it !
