Nike needed to connect to young people in the world of running, but the problem was that in Brazil young people don’t run. Running is the sport for middle-aged people who start to get worried about their health. Even before starting, young people think it is boring, they are at the height of their health, they don’t need to worry about health now. The path chosen wasn’t to change running or young people, but finding the points in common between these two worlds and showing the running that no one has ever seen, in a unique, young and authentic way. Nike, Brazil, the brand has more established competitors in the running segment. But Nike has something that no other brand has: attitude. It is seen by the consumers as a brand with young attitude, capable of subverting, of going beyond the normal. Therefore, if on the one hand we have the challenge of combining young people and running, on the other we have in our favor the fact that Nike has an image with much credibility among them. Our goal was to prove that running can be a sport for young people.
