'Runner's World' Tries Paid Site Feature

NEW YORK As the ad-starved print industry scrambles to find new ways to charge consumers for its content, Rodale’s Runner’s World is launching a paid feature on its site where runners can access training programs to prepare for fall marathons.

The Marathon Challenge will launch June 9. For a $130 fee, runners can access features like personalized training tools, weekly e-mails and access to the site’s community section. A $250 program will offer those same features and extra perks like post-race massages for people who want to run the Richmond Marathon on Nov.
