Run cycles, like ealk cycles, are part of the foundation of the study of animation. Animating a run cycle introduces student animators to many of the most important principles of animation, such as timing, spacing, weight and balance.
Most animation courses begin with basic locomotion such as walk and run cycles. It's where students first encounter the concepts of looping cycles, and also how to use important tools such as the Graph Editor. Being able to master a run cycle is a vital skill - it's like being able to play scales on a piano.
