Role: Web Concept, Lead Copywriter
Tasked with a complete rebrand of NikeWomen.com — now targeting badass high school team athletes vs. 30-something gym bunnies — we created an evergreen, editorial-style hub with several standalone features. One was the wildly successful Nike Field Reporter, which you can check out here. Another was Gone Running, which is shown down below.
Gone Running served as a not-so-gentle reminder: time spent thinking about running is time spent not running. And if that wasn’t reason enough? This interactive clock gave you 96 more reasons to “Just Do It” — one for every 15 minutes in a 24-hour day. The site also served up the current weather conditions and relevant product suggestions for your next run. No excuses now!
Recognition:
• Creativity Online / Ad Age Editor's Pick
• MediaPost Feature - "Out to Launch"
Even more rewarding—getting shout-outs from fans who, after seeing our work, were inspired to go for a run:
• "Notcot: Ideas + Aesthetics + Amusement" Blog
• "Today and Tomorrow" Blog
• The Philippine Star
