Log-normal distributions arise when many random effects are multiplied together.
“If you have a big product of random numbers, when you take the log of a product, that's the sum of the logs. So what was a product of random numbers then gets translated into sums of logs of random numbers, and that's what leads to this so-called log normal distribution.”
