Meet Ronnie Goodman, the homeless runner who joined the San Francisco Marathon in July 2014. And yes, he ran not for himself, but for charity.
Goodman, 54, sleeps in a tent under Highway 101, and has been homeless for two years. He may have a troubled past, but his life is changing now, for the better.
Wearing No. 25779, he joined 5,500 other runners for a good cause. His story went viral before the race, with kind people paying for his $120 fee and buying him a new pair of running shoes.
You’re the man!
