The runner is wearing a headlamp. It casts a spotlight onto the city's dark streets and paths:
“When I can run, I’m healthy and confident. 
My physical fitness and mental strength are improving. 
I’m able to grow.
While I’m running, I don’t look at my cell phone. 
I see how vibrant the city around me is.”
