Carb Happy: Run Happy

Seattle agency Wexley School For Girls got their giant heaping bowl of carbo-loading on for client Brooks Running.

Knowing that pre-marathon carbo-load is hugely important, Wexley created huge pop-up carb stations at various marathon sites including Chicago's Bank of America Health and Fitness Expo and Marathon, The Scotia Bank Toronto Waterfront Marathon, and a few other upcoming marathons in North America that may or may not be sponsored by banks.

Besides carbo-loading, visitors can sign up to win prizes, including (you guessed it) pasta, in fun Runneroni shapes. But there are also running shoes, the chance to get your photo taken next to a giant meatball, and according to the press release "CD's of running songs performed by an accordion." That last one sounds less like a prize and more like an incite to riot. As for the shoes being displayed on top of bowls of pasta? Don't let's talk about it. Please.
