"Unsubscribe." Based on your ridiculous cover this month, I won't be taking Outside anymore.

I was disappointed to see the risque and provocative image of Lolo Jones on the cover of your magazine. It's sad that you use sexually charged images that do not relate to the article or message of your magazine. I think you are simply trying to sell your magazine with sex. Lolo is a great athlete but you have demeaned her by asking her to dress and pose in a salacious way. We should celebrate Lolo for her dedication and accomplishments as an athlete, not how she looks with almost nothing on. I hope you will refrain from stooping low to promote your magazine with sensual material. I won't be renewing my subscription.

Best use of webbing ever.

Yes, the provocative picture is crass and because of it I'm disappointed with the magazine management.

DISLIKE the cover! Every real runner falls (some more than others, like myself) but I agree in belief that you are trying to sell the magazine through a sexy-image and that is wrong! Why not show a picture of somebody running in some hard core trail snowshoe race in sub-zero temperatures?! (fully clothed, please!)

Pretty annoying cover... Sad but I feel like the magazine has really gone down hill as of lately.... It's turning into Cosmo and Redbook with a slightly different twist. For those of us still hardcore about adventuring, we'd like to cut the fluff, and get back to the rugged adventure on the cover... If I wanted a running magazine, id subscribe to, well, RUNNING....

Frankly any attention track and field can get in any magazine is a good thing. It worked for the Womens Soccer and Softball teams... I am glad that her dedication lead to a cover story regardless of the outfit... she worked hard and deserves more cover shots.

I read your Lance Armstrong article while sitting in a hospital oncology waiting room. My husband wears a Livestrong jersey every day during his radiation treatment - it gives him hope that he may someday win his 10+ year battle with cancer. I hope that the author and Outside editors never find themselves in a postion to need the help, support and hope that Lance and his Livestrong team provide. Maybe you should participate in a Livestrong Challenge event and see what it means to cancer survivors and their families to be able to cross the finish line and collect a yellow rose.

First of all, I wondered how she got in to that thing? Secondly, I figured it was the annual swimsuit edition of Outside. Thirdly, I wondered how the picture had anything to do with the article. I read it, and it really didn't.

Hmm, as I recall the last issue had a photo of a topless Andreas Raelert on the cover. How many people cancelled their subscriptions because it was demeaning to Andreas or too risque and provocative, I wonder....?

The Feb 2012 cover photo on Outside magazine gives a whole new perspective on just what a "full body harness" looks like. I subscribe to this magazine. Been doing that off and on since it was called "Mariah" magazine. Why? Certainly not for "stuff like this." Titallating, yes. A head-turning photo that catches eyes at the checkout counter, yes. "Responsible" reporting and photos of athletes and the outdoors,-- umm, no. Just as irritating were the two photoshopped images within the article -- were you really that desparate for useable images? Is the magazine headed in the wrong direction? I think so. At the very least, it's wandering around in the desert trying to find its way in the new media landscape. Been that way for a long time. Just like a host of other magazines. I still subscribe. Maybe it's cuz I pay $4/year for it. That's just about right for the sum total of worthwhile material from a year's worth of issues.

Incredibly fit, incredibily athletic, and incredibily gorgeous. Get over yourselves and your jealousy. And no one is complaining about the nothing-left-to-the-imagination shot of Lance inside...

Yuck. Lolo Jones is a great subject for an article but the photography on the cover and inside was just trash. I don't care how much she's wearing but please portray her as the athlete that she is. I won't be resubscribing - y'all do this cheesy crap way too much with female athletes and it just ends up feeling like a boy's club rag. Why not show Lolo in action rather than posed in come hither lingerie? Her story was especially poignant -- this young woman has been through a lot in her life and you FAILED to depict her with any dignity. Or would that take more effort and sell fewer magazines? I'm a journalist and I know the game to grab eyeballs but this is just crass and artless dreck. It's too bad because you all have so many great writers -- but let's exercise some editorial judgment, people.

I have been reading Outside Magazine for a long time. The cover and contents shot what does that acomplish? What is the Outside brand these days? But, I really enjoyed the 'It's not about the lab rats' & 'Who pinched my ride?' as well as 'bodywork' article on triathlons, so I will keep on reading.

Ive never subscribed to Outside before but have heard great things. When I went to check it out to possibly subscribe this evening, almost none of the covers displayed depicted anything that I expected for an "outdoor" magazine. Not saying Lola isn't easy on the eyes, its just not what I was looking for and from other posts seems to be that way for many others as well....ended up going with the backpacker magazine in the end...

love the swimsuit in the cover! Who is the designer?

Great Swimsuits on Lola-- you should have a a section i the back under merchandise.

This cover was a serious disappointment. It is hard enough to raise girls these days in todays sexualized atmosphere, let alone find good role models, and Lolo could be a fine example, excepting the photos in this article (I thought I was looking at a Maxim cover). Unfortunately, it is demeaning and does not represent the kind of values that I teach any of my three girls. Please figure out where your values lie.

Who doesn't want to ogle a beautiful woman?better yet, one that is an athlete.i love the outdoors and beautiful women don't detract from that .instead it makes me want to meet a healthy,intelligent,beautiful woman.it isn't like the magazine is promoting smoking or drinking.

RE: the Lolo Jones webbing suits. Where would one GET one of those? They're awesome.

not sure why there were so many negative responses to the picture. i can almost guarantee that the negative responses are coming from one of two types of people; fat overweight women or from men who like other men. shes gorgeous and if you look like that you shouldnt be trying to cover anything up...

This is sad, really sad. An outdoors magazine...I mean come on. I don`t want my kids to have to see that crap when the go to get the mail for me. Sex is so much more than a money making tool, it is a precious and intimate thing. Sad to see how it is being abused, especially by this company.

Congratulations. Lance Armstrong treated you with respect yet you couldn't resist to fall back to innuendo and gossip in your muck raking article that strongly hints at his guilt and leading a phony organization like Livestrong to benefit himself. The Government's tactics were finally shown to lack any credible basis and the lead investigator's tactic of the threatening witnesses with federal jail time if they so much as made a mistake in recalling a date or time in replying to a question did not work. You have turned into a leading muck raking magazine that can't compete with Men's Journal" for quality reporting or writers. Its really disappointing and eyeopening how you have changed direction with attack articles for publicity only. I would like to see the author of the article swear under oath in a Federal Court he did not receive or ask for help from the investigators nor was paid by them or a publisher for a future book.

I cant believe that so many people, have this ridicules comment about Lolo's picture on the cover. she looks great, and that is a beautiful outfit. when a man is on the cover with just swimming trunks, and muscular cheat is it sexist. I don't think you get so upset. so thanks for this cover, it is what drew my attention to the magazine, LOVE IT..

I sent this email in January and do not see it posted anywhere I am copying and pasting it here:lishr I am a two time cancer survivor who's melanoma tumor was discovered at a free LiveStrong screening at the YMCA. Several months Later when I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer LiveStrong helped me in countless ways through treatment and recovery and that help continues. The article was a bias attempt to discredit Lance Armstrong and make it more difficult for LiveStrong to continue to help me and thousands of other cancer survivors like me. The article proved nothing but served only to show that some people will feel really good if Lance is proven guilty and LiveStrong fails with him. Chad Ward Boise, Idaho

I read all these comments and was very disappointed in most of the people who chose to post here about this cover. She is a very beautiful women who chose to be on this cover. I went back and looked at the comments posted on the issues that have men on the cover nearly naked and also not doing ANYTHING athletic outside and I didn't see a single comment calling is sexist or people threatening to cancel their subscription. So I ask to anyone who posted they had an issue with this cover to tell me why they didn't complain about the men as well? Why is it different? P.S. I love this cover.

How to unsubscribe? Didn't subscribe in the first place. Thought it was a nice magazine for serious outside people until I saw this... it's no different than anything else.
