I was around 14 years old when he came through my hometown of Woodstock Ontario....what a true legend.
Terry Fox ran the equivalent of a marathon (approximately 42 kilometers or 26 miles) nearly every day during his "Marathon of Hope" across Canada. He ran for 143 consecutive days, covering 5,373 kilometers before his cancer returned and forced him to stop near Thunder Bay, Ontario.
Over $900 million has been raised worldwide in Terry Fox's name for cancer research through the Terry Fox Foundation and related events, according to the Terry Fox Foundation. The annual Terry Fox Run, held in Canada and internationally, is the primary fundraising mechanism.

, I did find a version on YouTube that looks like it was a bootleg copy filmed from a TV screen in 1983. Think I’m going to watch it later. I looked on IMDB and the lead, Eric Fryer, has no other acting credits. I find that odd.
