Such an experiencewould have destroyed a weaker person--but Terry Fox was a fighter. He refused to give up. Instead,while he was recovering from the operation, an idea slowly formed in his mind. He decided he wouldrun across Canada--in order to raise money for cancer research.
Slowly and carefully, he began to train. Every step was extremely painful, but he insisted,increasing the distance covered day by day. Sixteen months later, in the spring of 1980,he was readyfor the long journey across Canada--his Marathon of Hope. It was a time of inspiration and heart-breaking emotion. Through television, every home saw his distinctive style of rnnning a kind of half-hop and half-run. Thousands of people lined the route to encourage him and to wish him well.They also gave money to fight cancer. Then, on September 1st,1980, after 143 days and more than5,000 kilometers completed,everything came tragically to an end. Terry had to stop.,He lived on foranother nine months and died on June 28th,1981. He was almost 23.
