the 元 part of the character helps with the pronunciation of the word as they both have the same pinyin, and the walking radical shows that there is movement, so it helps depict a person walking away, becoming farther and farther away.
The walking radical represents walking which you would need to do a lot of if something is far away. Well, if not, you could take some sort of transportation method… but that could be expensive, which reminds me of the 元 inside of the walking radical.
The second component or the 元 shows how the first part of the character and the second are separated and far apart, especially walking as the radical signals…
