Brooks Run Happy Team 2019

110 runners from all over Europe represent the Run Happy Spirit

The running shoe expert Brooks (www.brooksrunning.com) has put together a cross-country team of 110 running enthusiasts for 2019. For the Run Happy Team, Brooks received almost 4000 applicants from passionate runners from all over Europe who want to become part of the team and represent the spirit of the brand.

No matter whether you are a beginner or an experienced marathon runner – they all share their enthusiasm for running as well as the optimism and energy it releases. From the UK and Ireland, 25 applicants were selected to motivate others to run and be active. True to its motto “Run Happy”, the sports shoe manufacturer is convinced of the positive power of running and offers the participants of the Run Happy Team the special opportunity to experience this enthusiasm and share it with others. Throughout the year, the members receive not only the latest Brooks products, but also innovative training plans from experts and professionals as well as invitations to selected events.

Claire Butters, Marketing Manager (UK, Ireland, Benelux), is pleased to launch this great initiative this year: “Running has always been more than just a sport for Brooks – it is a connecting element! Run Happy is our philosophy. It is important to us as a brand that we get runners of all levels to have fun running and being active. No matter whether it’s the achievement of self-set goals, personal well-being or sporting success – the most important thing is experiencing the joy and energy that running sets free: Run Happy!”
