Reebok Explores the Jogversation Landscape

mcgarrybowen/180 Amsterdam and anonymous content/Gorgeous get together to create this neat spot called Run Easy, part of the Run Easy campaign Reebok recently launched.

While Nike and iPod nailed the intensity and exhiliration of music and the dash, Reebok slows the pace and captures the conversational camaraderie that occurs between runners. The use of snippets to tell tales out-of-context adds to the effect, considering runners tune in to some weird convos in those instances of jog-by earshot.

A far cry from the hip-hop effort of last year.

Research suggests adults who received minimal affection as children often become one of two things — either the most physically affectionate person in any room, overcompensating with a warmth they’re terrified of withholding, or the most physically reserved, maintaining a distance they don’t want but can’t override — and both responses are survival adaptations to the same wound, and neither one feels natural because neither one is, they’re both translations of an experience that was never given its original language

Psychology says people who grew up with very little affection don’t become cold — they become hyper-competent, because when love isn’t freely given, achievement becomes the only language they know for earning value
