Top 5 Reasons to Advertise
- Get Out There is included in over 150,000 race bags and event kits each year, placing your ad directly into the hands of participatory consumers.
Get Out There distributes over 150,000 copies of the magazine each year in race kits at a variety of running, cycling, triathlon, adventure racing and charity events. If you only benefitted from our race kit distribution (31% of our total annual distribution) you’d reach more highly qualified participatory Canadian athletes than subscribers to these publications combined: Explore, Pedal, Ski Canada, Canadian Running Magazine, Triathlon Canada Magazine and iRun.
- Get Out There has the lowest CPM of any comparable publication (see table below).
- Get Out There is distributed in every province in Canada, with targeted advertising opportunities in two regional editions
- Your ad is included in Get Out There’s digital edition at no additional cost, increasing your ad’s longevity and reach. Read the current digital editions now: East Edition, West Edition.
- Get the best of both worlds by reaching our audience of both cross-over and recreational athletes, as well as “the converted”.
Vertical magazines preach only to the converted and don’t reach cross-over or recreational athletes. Mass media such as newspapers don’t offer a qualified audience, resulting in wasted ad dollars. With Get Out There you get the best of all worlds!
There is no more efficient or cost-effective way to reach large numbers of active Canadians than through Get Out There Magazine.

Paid vs. Controlled Circulation; A Myth Debunked
Curious about the value of paid vs. controlled/request circulation? So were we. So we asked all the hard questions and found the answers.
The Magazine Publishers of America recently published a study based on independent research indicating reader response to ads is the same whether the ad was read in a controlled circulation or paid circulation magazine. The full report is available here.
In 2008 Get Out There launched interactive digital editions of the magazine (read our digital editions: East Edition, West Edition), now boasting over 6,000 request subscribers per issue. In addition, over 100,000 people are sent the link to the digital edition through our event and club partners. Now you can benefit from both controlled circulation and request circulation with a single ad buy!
