Hello! Rife Magazine ceased publishing new work in July 2022.

We've kept the magazine online as an archive and hope you'll still continue to enjoy all of its contributions from the last 8 years.

Last Thursday Jon and Ryan went to Eastville Park to report on the free fitness event they had there, organised by LPW. They went as men, and came back as boys.

So we’ve got the be honest, the weather wasn’t looking too great when we left to go.

But as soon as we got there the rain stopped! And we were faced with this bunch:

Yes, Rife magazine was about to do an ARMY ASSAULT COURSE. And would it get competitive? Of course not.

Nope, no competition here at all except we were fighting TO THE DEATH FOR HONOUR AND GLORY. Look at this lanky beast:

The Army guys tried to recruit us because we performed so well but we told them our loyalty lies with Rife magazine.

And once we stopped sweating we went off to try some of the other stuff on offer!

And then went back to watch some other losers who clearly weren’t up to our standard, sorry.
