In 1980, Terry Fox faced considerable challenges while running the equivalent of a marathon a day for 143 days during his 3,339 mile Marathon of Hope. It was all about effort for Terry. He challenged himself every day with one goal in mind: raise the most money he could to end cancer.

Honoured to be a part of this special day - joined by my friends and colleagues Helen Grant and Ruth Hanson.

Very memorable day. Thank you Terry Fox for all you have done to help end cancer and thank you to all of today's participants. Here is a link to the Terry Fox site where you can still make a donation: http://www.terryfox.org/
