29th September 2010. Leading running performance footwear and apparel brand ASICS, hosted a special corporate awards ceremony at its London flagship store in Argyll Street, in conjunction with its corporate running partner LGN Wellbeing – the organization most known for its corporate run clubs with leading companies such as BP, Coca Cola & M&C Saatchi and for creating bespoke corporate running events.



At the event, prizes were presented by Alex Bailey from ASICS and LGN founder Ben Pochee to the winners of two LGN corporate running events that took place in Regent’s Park in September.



The first was the annual inter advertising industry 5km in conjunction with charity patron NABS – a hotly contested event with 650 runners, won by a 10-person team from DDB UK lead by Stephen Woodford (DDB UK Chairman and CEO).



The second was for the Jones Lang LaSalle 5km, won by Alan Silvester (men’s race) and Florence Davey Attlee (women’s race).



Prize winners were presented with their trophies and medals in the store along with ASICS kit as rewards.





Ex Olympian Kevin McKay, Sports Marketing Director of McCann Manchester who made both Barcelona and Atlanta Olympics in the 1,500m came 2nd in the inter advertising 5km event and speaks very highly of the event…


"LGN’s Inter Advertising 5K with NABS is a must do event. It’s brilliantly organised. There’s a great atmosphere and a nice level of competiveness between agencies. McCann will be back next year as team champions. Just wait and see. I’ll definitely be back and will be going for the win"
