Since being shared, the social media post has garnered nearly 12.7 million views and a wave of reactions. While many were amazed by the anonymous runner's GPS-powered street art, others remained skeptical, suspecting the image was digitally altered.

One user remarked, "Man's out here running a whole year to make art while I can barely make it to my food bowl. Now that's what I call high dedication! Respect to the Toronto chad."

Another commented, "The dedication to do this is unmatched."

A third user added, "Now that is some serious commitment with a dash of fun sprinkled in."

However, not everyone was convinced. "When I saw it's a TikTok video, I knew it was edited. Good editing, btw," one user wrote.

"Almost had me, then he flipped his hat at :21, and it was disconnected from the original figure. That's when I knew it was fake," another pointed out.
