Terry Fox is a true Canadian hero. However, his legacy stretches across borders, and countries around the world celebrate Terry Fox as well. When I lived in Thailand, the school I worked at also participated in the Terry Fox  Run. This shows that his story, his journey, has no boundaries.

Luckily for our school, the weather cooperated today and we were able to run or walk outside. We wore our stickers with pride, showing who we were running for. Some of us ran for our mothers, fathers, grandparents, uncles, or even Terry Fox himself.

In case you are visiting us from far away and haven’t heard of Terry Fox, have a look at the video below to get a picture of who he was and how he inspires then and now.
