Just like its name sake, the Terry Fox Run in Thompson has been resilient.

Even though  COVID restrictions forced the event to go virtual for a couple years, Thompson was able to successfully resume an in-person event last year.

Here is Samantha Leahy, (Lee-Hee)  one of the organizers for this year’s Terry Fox run.

“We seem to have pretty good numbers come out to last year’s event. The virtual event also went very well for us, people seemed enthusiastic to be able to get out of the house and participate in something even if it was social distanced.”   

This year’s event takes place on Sunday, September 17th at the TRCC, starting at noon.

You can go online to register or to make a donation.
