The Terry Fox Run is set for Sunday, and people across Canada will hit the road, trails and streets, to raise money for cancer research.
In Kingston, Kristi Murphy knows why she laces up her runners. Murphy’s grandmother passed away from Leukaemia when Murphy was young. Since then, Murphy says she’s grateful for advances in research.
Runs like these across Canada commemorate Terry Fox’s Marathon of Hope. Decades on, Fox’s journey and perseverance, still inspire her. John Bell, a senior scientist with the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, says about $15 million has been given to their labs over the last decade.
