Simen started running after his father had a heart attack, and his wife past away from Cancer to proces the grief. Simen ran straight into the world's top of 24-hour running.

In 2021 he set a goal to beat the world record of running from the northernmost point to the southern-most point of Norway. 2550 km in 30 days.

For this project, he asked me to create a character and make illustrations that could help describe the process pre-, during and post the run. The character transforms from solid form to fluid form during the race, manifesting the transformation Simen Holvik goes through physically and mentally.
