IMPORTANT UPDATES:
I have completed the first two legs of my FiftyForFox Canadian Tour. Starting on March 26, in my hometown of Montreal, Quebec, completing my run at the Lachine Canal, followed by the beautiful harbour city of Halifax, Nova Scotia on April 1, just before an east coast snow storm at the iconic National Historic Site of the Citadel! Thank you to all my generous supporters. If you have not already done so, please consider making a donation, I can't reach my goal without you! To follow my journey and for any updates, please follow me here. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU! Please mark your calendars for my next run on Sunday, May 15, in Ottawa, Ontario on the Rideau Canal. TIME: 1pm (TBC). **Departure from the Terry Fox statue on Sparks Street**

My FiftyForFox birthday fundraiser is a concept I envisaged to celebrate my fiftieth birthday. I will run a 10KM in every province and territory, once per month, wrapping up in Terry's home province of British Columbia with a marathon! Because of evolving protocols associated with COVID, I will be giving myself a little over a year to complete. This is an important milestone to achieve my next half-century goals.
As you know, The Terry Fox Foundation is very near and dear to me. 24 years never missing a Terry Fox Run! Over the last decade, I have participated in a number of Terry Fox events and have been privileged to meet Terry's family members, who are exceptionally dedicated and kind. Terry is my hero. Thinking about his courage, fortitude and resilience have got me through some of my darkest days of loss.
This year will mark 30 years since I lost my mom and 13 years since I lost my dad to cancer. It has taken me a long time to reconcile the loss and grow from my experience. Although my goal of 50K is ambitious, I know I can do it with you!
