The American Liver Foundation's Run for Research®(RFR) program is the oldest and one of the largest marathon teams in the Boston Athletic Association's official charity program. For over two decades we have helped thousands of runners compete in the historic Boston Marathon while raising funds for the fight against liver disease.

Please check back September 2011 for information on the 2012 Run for Research Team.
