Terry Fox Run



Today, we ran around Emerson Lake for Terry Fox. Terry had a prosthetic leg because he had cancer in his leg.  He tried to run across Canada. He dipped his leg in the Atlantic Ocean and wanted to finish the race by dipping his leg in the other ocean. He had to stop running and go to the hospital because he had big spots on his lungs.  He couldn't breathe anymore.  We remember Terry by running the Marathon of Hope every year.  Terry Fox tried to run across Canada to raise money for the scientists and doctors because he hoped kids would never get cancer.
