🇨🇦🏃 He stopped running, but his dream never stopped.
On September 1, 1980, Terry Fox was forced to end his Marathon of Hope outside Thunder Bay, Ontario, after cancer had spread to his lungs.
In just 143 days, Terry had run an incredible 5,373 kilometres across Canada, inspiring millions with his determination to raise money and awareness for cancer research.
His journey may have ended on that road in Northern Ontario, but the legacy he created continues to live across Canada. Decades later, Terry Fox remains a symbol of courage, hope and the belief that one person can make a difference. 🇨🇦❤️
