Jason Boschan - aka Run4Papa - has completed marathons on all seven continents, and he's running 10 half marathons in 10 states this year with a goal of helping to find a cure for Alzheimer’s.
Cincinnati's Flying Pig half this Sunday (May 7) will be one of them, as Boschan's grandfather, Dr. Louis "Papa" Heyman - a lifelong pediatrician and the inspiration for Boschan's Run Against Dementia - graduated from University of Cincinnati's medical school.
More from a Run4Papa release:
“This race will be extra emotional because my grandfather went to medical school in this city as a young man and was the starting point of a lifelong commitment to his patients as a pediatrician,” said Boschan.
