Terry Fox was a cancer patient who ran 5,373 km across Canada in just 143 days before he died.
Terry thrilled the entire country. His goal was to receive one Canadian dollar for every Canadian in the population (then 24 million people), and he achieved his goal by raising 24.17 million Canadian dollars in February 1981.
A year after Terry Fox's death, the Terry Fox Foundation was created, which promotes amateur races across Canada and in several countries to support the fight against cancer.
According to the Terry Fox Foundation, more than C$715 million has already been raised for cancer research on Terry Fox's behalf.

Did you know... sugar beets are NOT the same as red beets! Although they are the same species, (Beta vulgaris), sugar beets are in the cultivar group Beta vulgaris Altimus. Canadian sugar beets are the only source of domestic sugar! #SugarBeets #AlbertaSugarBeetGrowers #ABSugar22
