Ghassemi to run for a greater purpose in Boston Marathon
The Freeman
|April 14, 2025
For Cebuano sportsman, entrepreneur and civic leader Afshin Ghassemi, a marathon has the power to unite humanity.
It gathers people from different backgrounds, cultures, religions, abilities and many more. Herein lies its strength because despite the differences, the goal remains the same - to reach the finish line.
As runners unite in solidarity to achieve such objective, they show the world their resilience and indomitable spirit.
Running for charity even gives a deeper meaning to a marathon’s unifying force.
Driven by that ardent desire, Ghassemi, an accomplished multi-sport athlete, will be running the Boston Marathon 2025 for a greater purpose on April 21 (Tuesday, April 22 Philippine time).
