Execution:
At the moment of victory, Nike wanted to remind Shanghai Marathon runners that this was more than a race. More than months of training. More than a commitment made to yourself months ago. You ran your own story.The emotional journey of a marathon racer was found within their Nike+ data. The miles and minutes logged from training to their victory was shaped into a story, broken into 13 key moments. Nike surprised them with this personalized story at the finish line.Racers scanned a QR code at the Shanghai Marathon finish line to personalize My Sole Story. The site combined animation with Nike+ data points, including their miles trained day and night, their finish time, as well as a photo celebrating victory with their shoes. All packaged into a digital experience that was shareable to their friends on WeChat, China’s biggest social network.30,000RACERS RELIVED THEIR RUN
