Hyland's Launches “Find Your Finish Line” to Support Boston Marathon Runners
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) March 30, 2016 -- Hyland’s, the country’s oldest and largest homeopathic medicine manufacturer and proud partner of the Boston Marathon®, is pleased to announce the launch of its “Find Your Finish Line” campaign. Find Your Finish Line (#HylandsFYFL) is dedicated to encouraging runners everywhere by sharing the inspirational personal stories of a select group of marathon runners. The campaign uses these narratives to encourage all athletes to discover their own unique finish line, challenge to tackle, or obstacle to overcome. Hyland’s Leg Cramps, the Official Cramp Relief Partner of the Boston Marathon, will support all runners before, during and after the 120th running of the world’s most historic road race.
“In a marathon, while everyone runs the same physical 26.2 miles, each of us crosses a very unique finish line, our own personal tale of victory,” said Lisa Shapiro, Hyland’s Brand Manager. “We want to help runners discover what that finish line will be and then cheer them on the whole way there.”
Hyland’s FYFL campaign commits to inspiring, educating and energizing runners as they journey towards the historic Boston Marathon, whether as a seasoned participant or a first time runner. The campaign includes a content-rich website dedicated to providing runners with motivational resources and practical tips to help achieve their athletic aspirations.
Additionally, 10 Boston runners have been invited to kick off the Hyland’s inaugural FYFL campaign. Each of these participants will submit 26 social media posts, over 26 days. The challenges will showcase each runner’s journey of self-discovery, including hearty mental and emotional conditioning, and give athletes everywhere the opportunity to vicariously prepare for the Boston Marathon.
Hyland’s invites all athletes to share their personal finish line stories on social media using #HylandsFYFL.
As part of the #HylandsFYFL campaign, Hyland’s will have subject matter experts throughout the campaign to encourage, motivate and help participants be successful:
- Dave McGillivray, Boston Marathon Race Director
- Bob Babbitt, co-founder Competitor Magazine and The Challenged Athlete Foundation
- Sarah Bowen Shea, author of the “Another Mother Runner” book series and co-founder of Another Mother Runner
Hyland’s, a trusted maker of homeopathic medicines for over 100 years, will exhibit at booth #520 at the John Hancock Sports and Fitness Expo and provide resources to runners throughout the race weekend.
