Are there any other runner's forums aside from this one?

I mean high-traffic forums with people in the know aside from LRC...

Players like John Bingham post there regularly.

Not sure if trackandfieldnews.com's forums count as "runners' forums," but they are the other board I read besides LRC. T&FN's forums are moderated.

For me, each has its place. General level of discussion is 50 IQ points higher on T&FN due to the moderation, and you have to register to post, both of which together eliminate all the loose cannons you get here on LRC. On the other hand, the unvarnished stream-of-consciousness nature of the postings on LRC when people can hide behind anonymity (unless IPs were to be tracked/investigated) means info/opinions are posted that you would never get on T&FN.

You could try the Reddit running forum. It's awful.

"Did my first 5k today! Legs soooo tired. Any advice for my tired legs"

"Yay, you did it! Just rest them, That should help. Congratulations on your run!"

"Thanks, super excited, yay I did it hip hip hooray!"

Sounds like the people on that forum actually enjoy running, and support other runners, unlike most people on here.

Support is overrated.

Support is for privileged fat chicks that 'don't even' know how eating like a pig makes you look like one.

Trackie.ca is mostly Canadian talk, but is fairly popular.

Athletics Illustrated's hasn't really caught fire yet...waxes and wanes...http://athleticsillustrated.com/editorial/mens-2015-toronto-pan-am-games-marathon-predictions/

the advancedrunning subreddit is decent.

Readers of letsrun will likely better fit in at reddit's /r/runningcirclejerk

Can't get a girlfriend, eh?

tracktalk.net

A bunch of very knowledgeable posters, having to register makes it much less of a cesspool than the LRC messageboard...

is not high traffic except for a few state HS boards but they have a spot for most states established even if not in use

has a number of sub boards but no Editorial or home page, Elite from major meets, College HS Elite, A Buy Trade and Sell area for shoes and stuff that has a number of good traders/.sellers, an Open comment board called Playground and a Current Events board that pretty much keeps the T&F stuff sorted from the other social media aspects are available.

register to post

If you're not a jerk they are very welcocming

You can enjoy running in one hand and crap in the other.

See which one gets filled up first.
