Boston Marathon bombings hero will run in 2018 race in honor of those who died or were injured

You know him as one of the heroes from the Boston Marathon bombings, and this year, Carlos Arredondo will be running the 26.2 miles for the first time. Arredondo’s heroism became a beacon of what it means to be Boston Strong in the wake of the tragic events five years ago. His quick response is credited with saving the life of Jeff Bauman, whose story was adapted into a feature film. This year, Arredondo will be running in honor of those who died and were injured on the fateful Monday in 2013. Arredondo was photographed wearing his cowboy hat and pushing Jeff Bauman in a wheelchair after losing both his legs in the blast. Arredondo helped put tourniquets on Bauman's legs before seeking medical assistance. (02/27/2018) Views: 1,556 ⚡AMP
