{"Image ImageDescription": "BALTIMORE, MD - SEPTEMBER 15: Keith Boissiere's rests his feet on his front steps on September 15, 2016 in Baltimore, Maryland. A lean, muscular figure, the 'Running Man' weighs about 133 pounds and is five-foot nine-inches tall. Boissiere doesn't wear or use any high-tech devices to help track his distances. He measures his distances by his pace, which he calculates by the clock on his flip-style phone. Keith Boissiere has been running nearly every day for the past three decades - averaging more than 20 miles per day - for his health. Many residents only know the enigmatic figure by his nickname of the 'Running Man' - but Boissiere, 64, is a green-card-carrying Trinidad and Tobago native living in solitude on the border of Harlem Park and Sandtown-Winchester: two menacing neighborhoods in Baltimore City. Having never competed, nor having a desire to do so, the 'Running Man' held a daily streak of 12 and a half years which helped him earn his alias. But his health took a turn for the worse in 2008 - the streak ended - as his life almost did, too. Through all of his troubles, which includes being on a kidney donor recipient list, Boissiere copes the only way he knows how - he continues to run - as the hospital encouraged him to do in order to aid his failing health. He doesn't brag about his accomplishments or mention his celebrity-like status despite being constantly acknowledged - and these days barriers such as rain, snow and hospital appointments often dictate his running schedule. His drive and passion for his own health is often described as bringing positivity and strength to residents in the city, and the people of Baltimore still witness the 'Running Man' from West to East, and North to South, as he competes with only himself to stay upright by staying fit in a city plagued by: drugs, guns, crime, and violence.
