Accelerade® 24-Hour Endurance Run
< 
“To kick off the national launch of Accelerade, Dean Karnazes will aim high. On June 21, his goal will be to break the world record for a 24-hour distance run on a treadmill (currently set at 153.76 miles) as well as to raise awareness for Athletes for a Cure, an organization dedicated to finding a cure for prostate cancer. The treadmill will be located on a platform attached to the Reuters building in Times Square.”
A rich media ad on some random website caught my eye this morning. A long range view of a man running on a treadmill on a balcony overlooking New York’s Times Square. I clicked through and found this interesting combination of:
- Live webcam technology tied to rich media banner/display advertising trafficked through multiple sites
- Smart viral/public campaign strategy hinging on a “stunt”
- One day stunt — will be interesting to see how Accelerade follows through with this as part of an ongoing campaign.
