Description
Everyone has their own reasons for running. And the word ‘fast’ can mean something different to each and every runner. Fast is personal: one runner’s ‘fast’ might be very different from the next runner’s idea of fast.
This rich territory is explored in adidas’s latest blockbuster global running campaign titled ‘Faster Than_’. The global marketing push has been created by Amsterdam’s TBWA\NEBOKO and the initiative covers mainstream media, digital, social, product branding and in-store activations. The campaign is led by a hero film that brings the concept together by reframing the idea of fast, starring a unique mix of characters, each with their own take on running – and on what fast means to them.
Among the featured runners are Martinus Evans, a 300-lb distance runner who turned his doctor’s negative body comments and laughter into a motivational tool; Noah Lyles, the current Men’s 200-meter World Champion; emergency liver transplant survivor turned World Champion runner Ellie Lacey; and marathon legend Kathrine Switzer, who famously became the first female numbered entrant to the Boston Marathon in 1967 and was controversially pushed off the course by male runners but battled on and finished the race.
This professional campaign titled 'Faster Than' was published in The Netherlands in February, 2020. It was created for the brand: adidas, by ad agency: TBWA. This Integrated medium campaign is related to the Fashion industry and contains 7 media assets. It was submitted over 4 years ago.
