love/HATE

I'm in love with the New Balance "LOVE/hate" campaign they've got going. The commercials are fantastic. While running is more a love/HATE relationship for me, I can identify with the theme. This one is my favorite:



Their newest one is also great.


After looking at a few of the spots on YouTube, I ran into an old Adidas commercial I'd almost forgotten about. The commercial came out around the time I first started running a few years. I was mesmerized by the stunning visuals under the direction of Spike Jones and the great little song by Yeah Yeah Yeahs lead singer Karen O. Its still a fantastic video.


I went out to go buy a pair only to find they were priced well over $100. Who buys shoes over $100? Oh, yeah, apparently I do.
