Terry Fox Run

Date : 1 November 2009
Venue : Lake Gardens (Taman Tasik Perdana)

An annual run of hope, held in KL in aid of Cancer Researh, is a non-competitive event named after a young man diagnosed with bone cancer who had his leg amputated above his right knee. His name is Terry Fox.

He ran across Canada to raise money for cancer research and managed a marathon a day for 143 consecutive days, but was forced to abandon the run when his condition became critical. He died at the age of 21. Now, The Terry Fox Run is participated by countries around the world, embracing Terry's hope in finding a cure for cancer.

To date, more than $400 million has been raised worldwide for cancer research in Terry's name through the annual Terry Fox Run, held across Canada and around the world."
