Just in time for Father’s Day, 'Race' was created by brand agency Figliulo&Partners (F&P) for American Century Investments. The spot shows a man attempting to get into shape, struggling but ultimately improving. At the end it is revealed that he’s not training for himself, but to keep up with his daughter – in order to record her competing in a race.

The spot kicks off the new 'Be More Invested' campaign, which embodies American Century’s core values and the belief that when you’re more invested in something, you go the extra mile, which is how the firm approaches offering financial solutions for their client’s needs. The father’s commitment in “Race” is a way to show that “when you’re more invested, you do more”– just like American Century does for its clients. The national campaign will include TV, online video, social and digital placement.
