A Run Inspired By A Dream

Terry Fox Run Celebrates its 33rd Anniversary

KUALA LUMPUR, 1 November 2013 – One of Malaysia’s most anticipated and established events, the Terry Fox Run returns this year for its 33rd anniversary to mark the fight against cancer and will see people from all walks of life rally around the twin causes of cancer prevention and awareness.

This year’s run will be held at Taman Tasik Titiwangsa, Kuala Lumpur on Sunday, 1st December at 8.00am. The general public is encouraged to participate in this non-competitive family event and can use any non-motorized form of mobility – walking, running, cycling, or skating, on either the Family Route (3 km) or Standard Route (5 km).

Participation is free; however donations through the purchase of Terry Fox Run T-shirts are encouraged with proceeds going to this year’s run beneficiary, Cancer Research Initiatives Foundation (CARIF) to be utilized for cancer research. The T-shirts are priced at RM 30 and are available in different sizes for both children – 2, 4 and 3XS – and adults – 2XS, XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL and 3XL from 13th November whilst stock lasts at these following places:

The Terry Fox Run is the largest single day fundraiser for cancer research in the world and is celebrated in honour of Terry Fox, a young Canadian and cancer patient who began the ‘Marathon of Hope’ – his inspiring journey to run across Canada to raise money for cancer research. With one leg amputated, Terry Fox became a national hero running for 143 days, completing 5,373 km before he passed in 1981.

The Terry Fox Foundation was established that year to continue his legacy by hosting a run the same time every year. Since then, the Terry Fox Run has been held in over 50 countries throughout the world and has raised more than RM 1.3 billion in aid of finding a cure for cancer through the Terry Fox Foundation. 

To date, the Terry Fox Run has raised more than RM 1 million for cancer research in Malaysia since its first run in 2001. Last year, the event attracted more than 6000 participants and raised over RM 239,000.

Terry Fox Run 2012 - T-Shirt Sale Location

Terry Fox Run 2012

The Terry Fox Run, named after the young man who inspired these events, has been held in KL for the last 18 years in Kuala Lumpur and has attracted thousands of Malaysians from all walks of life. Terry Fox was 18 years old when he was diagnosed with bone cancer. His right leg was amputated above the knee. Whilst in hospital, Terry was so moved by the suffering of cancer patients, especially children and this inspired him to run across Canada (a distance of 8,500 kilometres) to raise money and awareness for cancer research. He called his journey the “Marathon of Hope”. With courage and determination, he ran 42 kilometres a day for 143 consecutive days covering a total of 5,373 kilometres. Terry was forced to abandon his run as the cancer spread to his lungs and he eventually passed away at the age of 21.

Terry Fox KL Run 2009 Report here

Terry Fox KL Run 2009

Date: 1 Nov 2009

Time: 9am

Venue: Tasik Perdana, Tapak A

The run started at 9am, it was a hot hot run. Hot weather, hot black T-shirt, hot runners, hot performance & hot music.

Bottles of bottles water provided, sikat of sikat pisang provided, loads of muffin provided. Some runners grab & 'da bao' a few muffins, calories gained more than calories burnt in running.

It was a successful fun run with a few big companies as sponsors and many kind & generous runners came for the charity. Hopefully it will start early next year so that runners need not get barbeque under the hot sun.
