2021 Terry Fox Run

KINGSVILLE – September is just around the corner and so is the 41st anniversary of Terry Fox Runs across Canada.

Kingsville’s Terry Fox Run – “One Day. Your Way!” – is slated for Sunday, September 19. Once again it will be a virtual run, not an in-person event.

Last year the Kingsville site raised just over $10,000, and organizers hope that Kingsville and the neighbouring communities will meet that challenge again this year.

Participants can run, walk, bike, urban pole, swim, skateboard or do any other activity of their choosing, anywhere and anytime of the day, on September 19 in support of the Kingsville site for the Terry Fox Run.

It isn’t an ideal way to celebrate Terry’s Marathon of Hope achievement from 41 years ago when he ran 5,375 kilometres in 143 days, but organizers urge participants to “Try like Terry”!
