A message from Founder, Tim Boyle
In 2013 there was a man who had quit smoking and started putting on the weight associated with quitting. He was looking for inspiration to run. He found it in a kindhearted man by the name of Michael Wasserman.
Wasserman is a 58 year old legend in his own right, he is confined to a wheelchair and has Down syndrome. Tim Boyle, the ex smoker, decided that he was going to start running to lose the extra poundage but couldn’t muster the inspiration to run. So he decided to run for Michael. He dedicated all his miles to his buddy. That’s where it all began.
Seven years, 40,000 people, and 17,000 matches later, I Run 4 is still going strong! It has been heralded by Facebook as one of their most inspirational groups. Watch the video below and see just how this group has changed lives!
