The Terry Fox Story

When Terry Fox was diagnosed with osteosarcoma at 18, his experience ignited a fierce determination to bring an end to the suffering cancer causes, by raising more money for life-changing research. And so, on April 12, 1980, Terry dipped his artificial leg in the Atlantic Ocean and proceeded to change the world.

Terry Fox…
An Inspiration For Everyone

Terry Fox…An Inspiration For Everyone

Who was Terry Fox?

Terry Fox was a Canadian athlete, humanitarian, and cancer research activist. After losing his leg to cancer at only 18 years of age, Terry set out to do the impossible: run across Canada, one marathon a day, in pursuit of his dream to find a cure for cancer.

What was the
Marathon of Hope?

In 1980, Terry’s journey to raise money for cancer research began and he called it the Marathon of Hope. With fierce determination and hope, Terry completed an average of 42 km each day, every day for 143 days. He ran a total of 5,373 km.
