lululemon Launches Running Gives Campaign with New Fast and Free™ Gear That Feels Like Nothing at All

This fall, lululemon invites runners everywhere to reconnect with the transformative power of movement through its new Running Gives campaign and the latest evolution of its Fast and Free™ franchise. Running Gives is rooted in a simple truth: The more you give to running, the more it gives back. Running has the power to unlock deeper levels of mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing and this requires having the right gear and community to back you.

To support runners on this journey, lululemon is introducing the latest evolution of its Fast and FreeTM – one of lululemon’s key franchise for running. Tested and validated by its Ambasadors, the collection is designed to deliver the ultimate sensation of running in nothing at all. Engineered for performance and rooted in lululemon’s Science of Feel‚ philosophy, Fast and Free, continues to redefine what it means to move freely.

Born from the desire to create a barely-there product experience, Fast and Free‚ is powered by lululemon’s proprietary NuluxTM‚ fabric-a breathable, moisture-wicking, and quick-drying material that offers ultra-lightweight comfort without compromising support. What began as a streamlined women’s tight has grown into a full franchise of high-performance silhouettes for both women and men.

“Fast and Free is our go-to franchise for runners,” said Melanie Anayiotos, Vice President of Women’s Design at lululemon. “It considers every aspect of their mindset. We’re delivering an even better on-body experience that feels like running in nothing at all with new styles and design refinements.”
