Bay to Breakers Marathon

T-Shirt

Shirts are given away to every registered participant. The first design mimics the home page’s figure, which is a long-standing tradition for Bay to Breakers. Type is used to construct the figure and showcases all the statistics of past marathons. The second design exploration applies various hand drawn types to showcase the stats, but his design did not embody the spirit of the race. The final design utilizes elements from the video to create a successful shirt design.

Breaking world records with self proclaimed audacity, the Bay to Breakers is the largest annual San Francisco marathon. As it turns 99 years old, this project celebrates the unique spirit that is Bay to Breakers.
