Event Details:

This year’s event will be held on Sunday September 15^th, at Robert Simpson Park in Arnprior, and will offer the popular 1km “Walk in the Park” (participants can walk the perimeter of Robert Simpson Park twice for the 1km walk), plus the 3km and 5km routes. Registration opens at 10am and the run/walk begins at 11am – participants can begin anytime after 11am, finishing up no later than 1pm back at the park.

Although it’s called the Terry Fox Run, participants can walk, run, or wheel along their preferred route (wheel = wheelchairs, cyclists, rollerbladers and strollers welcome). There is no entry fee and no minimum fundraising amount required to participate. A popular question has been, “Can I just make a donation at the event and walk, instead of fundraising”, and the answer is yes.  All donations over $20 will have an income tax receipt issued to the donator by the Terry Fox Foundation in January 2025.

There will be a silent auction at the park starting at 10:00am and closing at 12:00noon, we will have some of the Ryan Reynolds inspired t-shirts for sale and a donation box set up at the event to help raise money for cancer research.
