Terry Fox Walk/Run
This year marks the 42nd Anniversary of Terry Fox’s Marathon of Hope. While the Terry Fox run will look a little different this year, let us all take inspiration from the way Terry rose above the many challenges that met him on the Marathon of Hope and make this year's event a safe, fun, and memorable one.
