Your problem is that self.run_file is being overwritten at each iteration in the for loop. To make sure that the IntVar of each checkbox are not overwritten, store them separately, for example in a list:

self.run_file_IntVars = []

for i, f in enumerate(self.f_list):
    self.run_file_IntVars.append(tk.IntVar(value=1))
    cb = tk.Checkbutton(self, text=f['file'], 
                        variable=self.run_file_IntVars[i])
    cb.pack()
