Terry Fox exhibit at Sports Hall
A Terry Fox exhibit opens at Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame with the 36th running of his race just days away. A signed Wayne Gretzky jersey given to Fox just before he started his Marathon of Hope on April 12, 1980, is among the reminders of a young man who ran the equivalent of a marathon every day on a prosthetic leg before cancer took him. Fox’s brother Darrell says the exhibit would have meant a lot to Terry because he saw his Marathon of Hope as an athletic endeavour as much as it was to raise money and awareness.
