"Terry Fox embarked on his Marathon of Hope with a single goal: to raise funds for cancer research. He was not interested in personal fame, accolades or recognition. Simple awareness of the cause was not enough. Terry’s experience in the cancer wards had shown him that the answers to the complex puzzle that is cancer would be revealed through research…and research cost money. And it is for this reason that The Terry Fox Run is a fundraiser. Participants are not charged an entry fee nor are there minimum pledge amounts. Instead, Terry Foxers are asked to contribute what they can, keeping in mind that Terry was all about the effort, about taking himself to the limit for the cause."
