Dear UR subscriber,

Your UltraRunning subscription expired with the August issue. We hope you will renew! UltraRunning magazine is full of information on training, nutrition, and useful products, as well as plenty of inspiration, beautiful photographs, and race reports and results from around the country.

We are now letting everyone know their renewal status by email. This will save you the risk of paper cuts from opening an envelope, let you put energy into a run instead of looking around for your checkbook, and no doubt will also save a few trees in the process!

We encourage you to renew your UltraRunning subscription online via our secure website. All you need to do is click on this link:

and it will take you from there. Please take a moment to renew now before you misplace this email or forget! This will ensure that you don’t miss any issues. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at subscriptions@ultrarunning.com or lisah@ultrarunning.com.

Thank you for your support of UltraRunning – The Voice of the Sport since 1981 - and for helping us with this greener approach to renewals. If you prefer to renew by mail, please use our postal address below.

Dear UltraRunning Magazine,

I am happy to report my subscription to UR does not require renewal as this wonderful sport has spawned yet another "ultra couple".

In a terribly efficient move, Charles Raffensperger and I will be cutting our subscription needs by 50%, as we find only one subscription of UR per household is truly necessary. We are deliriously happy to be evading the ever-present risk of paper cuts in the process, not to mention saving a few trees!

See you OUT THERE,

Psyche Wimberly

  5. I can only speak for myself, but now that I know the MORAL MONSTER is after me, I will most assuredly step up my training :)

  6. Take it from me Moral Monster, nobody is breaking up this marriage, it was already broken beyond repair and it is MY choice to leave after enduring years of negativity, bitching, complaining, and unfounded criticisms...if you feel compelled to enforce your narrow minded view of morality on someone please choose someone equally as small minded as yourself. And btw, Psyche can run pretty fast :)
