Terry Fox

As I prepare for the New York City marathon I am motivated by the legacy of Terry Fox. Even though he had lost a leg to cancer, he ran the equivalent of a marathon a day for the better part of a year. Here is a picture of me participating in the Confederation Bridge run to honour the 25th anniversary of the Terry Fox Marathon of Hope. I ran from the Prince Edward Island side of the bridge to the New Brunswick side (about 13K). Close to 12,000 people of all ages particpated in this fun run/walk. As always, I proudly wore my Team Diabetes singlet and along the way I talked with several people who were interested to know about Team D.
