We run and remember terry fox because he represents hope in the face of challenge, and was someone who never gave up, even when he was diagnosed with cancer. This man decided to not give in and chose to help make a positive difference in this world, and though he may have lived longer if he hadn't ran the marathon of hope, he still did, and thanks to him, many more people, kids and adults alike, have survived cancer, all because of him. That is why we run and remember.~Yang and Eric
