St. John Ambulance Kenora Branch was pleased to come out and support the participants in the 45th Annual Terry Fox Run.

After running 5,373 kilometres in 143 days, Terry Fox raised approximately 2 million dollars for Cancer Research. Sadly, he had to stop his Marathon of Hope here in Thunder Bay.

His legacy still continues on, and we here at St. John Ambulance are proud to be a part of that, whether it's cheering on racers, providing first aid services, or watching someone we know participate.
