Does anyone read both Track & Field News magazine AND the T&F News web site? If so, how repetitive is the information? Is it still worth subscribing to the magazine? Thanks!

There is a lot more information in the magazine than on their website. I think it's worth subscribing :) When you subscribe you also get email updates.

I agree. The e-version is very good and sent on a very regular basis. The printed version has significantly different content--they learned long ago that they can't simply present month-old statistics to subscribers.
I think of it as a subscription to the weekly e-mail newsletter plus a free magazine, rather than the other way around. It's not cheap, but you do get a significant discount if a USATF member.
I just subscribed to Alfons Juck's daily EME News. It makes T&FN look very cheap in comparison.
As an old guy, I am glad and very appreciative of the printed version..love to find it in my mailbox when it comes and not have to be where the computer is...to read it.
