Brand Success Stories
See what brands achieved at Endurance Race venues
La Colombe booth was probably the hottest area in the whole Finish Fest. Every time I walked by, there was a long line of people waiting to get a can. Also overheard several attendees talking about how good they thought the product was. Overall, the reception for La Colombe was about as good as it could get!
Chobani
Brand Partner
Athletes commented that they had to do a double take when they saw it was half the carbs. Most people asked if this was gluten free.
General Mills
Brand Partner
The branded tent & pop up banners helped drive foot traffic to the redemption tent for our finishers. Our team only heard positive reviews throughout the weekend. And, racers enjoyed the extra 4oz!! We did/do include Heineken in our event emails and IG story throughout weekend, which will all be shared in our EOY recap.
