Run For Your Life

Run For Your Life (R4YL) is Australia’s premier running magazine and provides the widest coverage and the most up-to-date information on running in Australia, from recreational to the elite level – we cover it all.

WRITTEN BY RUNNERS FOR RUNNERS

R4YL was launched in July 2005 and was immediately a smash hit in the Australian running community. The combination of relevant and up-to-date information for runners of all ages and levels has satisfied everyone’s appetite. The Australian and international content provides our readers with a broad grasp of the specifics of the sport, from training techniques and injury management, through to interviews on Australia’s best runners, alongside Australia’s keenest participants. Our contributors include a range of experienced and nationally-renowned runners, professional nutritionists, physiotherapists, sports physiologists, masseurs and sports doctors who provide practical and in-depth articles to give our readers all the information they need on the sport of running. In addition to road, cross-country and track running, R4YL magazine captures the broader running market, with regular updates and features on orienteering, mountain, trail and ultra running.

R4YL was born from Australia’s roads, trails and pavements. The intention was to create an innovative, professional, modern publication the likes of which had never been seen before in Australia.

R4YL also sponsors and supports running events right across the country from grass roots running to major road races, with the aim of inspiring and increasing the number of runners within Australia. To say we are passionate about what we do is a massive understatement. Everyone involved with R4YL is a dedicated, enthusiastic and passionate runner. We live it, we breathe it and we pass that passion on. If your business is running, you want to be with R4YL!

Each bi-monthly, full-colour issue is an interesting and valuable source of information for runners at all levels, from beginners through to the elite.
