In /run goes a tmpfs, and it gets mounted really early in the boot
process, so programs can write to it without /var being mounted
(/var/run is a bind mount of /run in modern systems).

# mount | grep /run
tmpfs on /run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,mode=755)
tmpfs on /var/run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,mode=755)

I suppose OpenRC has a problem mounting /run on your system, but I
don't know, I use systemd.

Regards.
