Meet Our 2026 T-Shirt Artists

Every year we hold a contest encouraging artists to submit designs for our t-shirt art for the 10 Mile & 5K. We also hold a contest for kids ages 10-and-under to submit art for our Kids Run t-shirts. Every year we get a large number of wonderful designs, so the process of narrowing the submissions down to one adult design and one kid design is always a difficult one. Below you can learn more about the 2026 winning 10 Mile & 5K t-shirt artist, Débora Chodik, whose design was chosen from over 360 submissions from almost 170 designers. Our Kids Run art contest winner was 8-year-0ld Tristan Carrière-Swallow.  (Click on the designs below to see a larger image).

10 Mile & 5K T-Shirt Art Designer Débora Chodik

Débora Chodik: I’m a Brazilian living in Barcelona, where I run Monday&Co, a textile design studio focused on designing original prints and patterns. Nature has always been my source of inspiration, from the tropical colors of Brazil to the Mediterranean landscapes I see every day. It’s in this mix of places and colors that my creative identity takes shape. (Click on the design at left to see a larger image).
