Capturing the Spirit of Competition – Hereford High School Bull Run T-Shirt Design
At Hampstead Marketing and Design, we take pride in every project that comes our way, but there’s something extra special about working with our alma mater, Hereford High School. When we were asked to design the official T-shirt for this year’s Bull Run event, it felt like coming full circle. As a proud Bull and Hereford graduate myself, with memories of the school’s traditions running deep, this project was an opportunity to celebrate the spirit and energy that make Hereford High School so unique.
The Bull Run event is an annual highlight, known for its challenging cross-country course and the fierce competition it attracts. With that in mind, our goal was to create a design that embodied the dynamic and unstoppable energy of the runners, while also paying tribute to the iconic symbol of Hereford: the Bull. The result is a T-shirt that not only celebrates the race but also the rich tradition and pride of being a Hereford Bull.
The design features an animated set of male and female runners, charging forward with determination and strength. The runners are depicted in mid-stride, capturing the intensity and momentum of the race. Behind them, an explosive bull bursts forth from the green fields, symbolizing the power and resilience that are hallmarks of Hereford’s spirit. The landscape is unmistakably Hereford, with its rolling green hills and open fields, a nod to the school’s deep connection to the land and its agricultural roots.
Working on this design was more than just another project for Hampstead Marketing and Design. It was a chance to give back to a community that has given us so much. Hereford High School has played a significant role in shaping who I am today, from my days on the field hockey team to my involvement in the National Art Honor Society. This T-shirt design is a reflection of that journey, blending my passion for art and design with the pride I feel as a Hereford alum.
As the owner of Hampstead Marketing and Design, I’m grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with local schools and organizations, helping them bring their visions to life. Whether it’s a website for the Hereford Athletic Boosters or a T-shirt design for the Bull Run, every project is a chance to connect with the community and celebrate the values that define us.
We’re excited to see the runners don these shirts as they take on the Bull Run course this year. The design captures the essence of the event—strength, determination, and school pride—and we’re honored to have played a part in it. Here’s to all the runners, and to the enduring spirit of the Hereford Bulls!
