RUNHER Magazine is now commissioning ambitious stories for Issue 003, and they want sharp writers who can deliver high-level narrative journalism on women’s running. If you’re looking for high-paying writing jobs, sports writing gigs, or freelance feature writing opportunities, this is a solid target.

They want deeply reported pieces that immerse readers in the culture, community, and evolving landscape of women’s running. Your pitch should have a strong, timely hook that makes the editor care right now. Include what angles you’ll explore, the sources you plan to interview, and any data or studies that strengthen your case. Also note the insight or takeaway your story will bring to the women’s running community or industry.

This is perfect for Kenyan writers aiming for international publications—especially those building portfolios in sports journalism, health writing, or longform reporting.

What They’re Looking For:
Deeply reported stories with urgency, clear angles, solid research, and a meaningful takeaway for women runners and the industry.
