Medicine Hat organizers have opened registration for September’s Terry Fox Run
Medicine Hat organizers have officially opened registration for the annual Terry Fox Run, scheduled to take place on September 15th. The event, which honors the legacy of Canadian hero Terry Fox, has been a symbol of hope and inspiration for people not only in Canada but also in 33 other countries around the world.
According to organizers, the Terry Fox Run is not just a fundraising event but a way to bring the community together and celebrate the spirit of resilience and determination. Participants are encouraged to form teams and join in the run, either for a bit of friendly competition or simply to have a good time with friends, family, or coworkers.
Local organizer Walker expressed his enthusiasm for the event, stating, “He’s such an icon. A few years ago, maybe 10 or 15 years ago, they had a vote, and he came in second, a really close second, as the number one hero for Canadians. I think for most people, he is the Canadian hero and what I really like about it is it also takes place in other places around the world.”
With the registration now open, organizers are urging the community and businesses to sign up early and start preparing for the event. By coming together for the Terry Fox Run, participants not only support a great cause but also pay tribute to the enduring legacy of Terry Fox and his message of hope and perseverance.
As the countdown to the September run begins, organizers are optimistic that this year’s event will be a great success, with a strong turnout and enthusiastic participation from the community.
