the runner

I started doodling a runner because I’ve been thinking about how running makes me feel free and strong. First, I drew the body in blue, making the runner look like they’re in mid-step, full of motion. I added a tracksuit with “FIT” on it because I wanted to show they love fitness. The red hair came next—I made it wild and flowing to show speed and fire, like they’re unstoppable.

I sketched clouds in the sky to make it feel bright and happy, like a perfect day for a run. The ground got some green grass to keep it simple but alive. I used bold lines and bright colors because I wanted the drawing to feel alive and fun, just like how I feel when I run.

I drew this runner because I wanted to remind myself to keep going, even when things get tough. Running always clears my head, and I hoped this doodle would capture that joy. It’s not perfect, but it makes me smile, and that’s what matters.
