good fitness mags for women?

My friends son is doing a magazine fundraiser so I will be ordering a monthly magazine, just wondering what would be a good one to get for me! I'm 25 love to run, lift weights and eat healthy! Any advice on what would be a good one for women like me would be great! Thanks!

    I would stay away from fitness magazines(mainly men's and women's fitness or is it Men's and Women's Health?). i dont remember which one is made up of mostly supplement advertisements. Which ever one I'm referring to, stay clear of it. They are just a collection of advertisments for supplements.

    Perhaps a magazine for runners? Perhaps a magazine that is for cooking (gives recipe/meal ideas)?

    Omg I love Self magazine! Its full of positivity, great exercise cards, diet plans, and has stuff about health, beauty, and fashion, but its primary focus is motivated, fit women. The drop 10 plan is awesome too! Its in there monthly. I highly recommend it! Far more entertaining than Shape magazine.

    I thought Women's Health had pretty good nutrition and exercise advice. But it was a small part of the magazine, and the rest of the magazine looked more like Cosmo with fashion, relationship, career, and sex advice. Ummm, no thanks, I'm just looking for fitness. I let my subscription go.
    Now I just subscribe to Black Belt. Hubby subscribes to Runner's World.
