We attended the 25th annual Terry Fox run at Carleton University Sunday morning. It was an incredible event that saw over 6000 people turn out to run in honor of Terry Fox and support cancer research. Making the event even more special was having Curtis, along with Daniel Stanton and Dennis Gudbranson, open the run in a rickshaw operated by Cru Sears. Cru, who has operated a rickshaw for over 14 years in the Byward market, offered to pull his 200 pound rickshaw with the boys for the entire 10km run. Daniel and Dennis are two other very special boys who we have met along with their parents during our time at CHEO. Both Dennis and Daniel have recently returned from stints in Toronto undergoing bone marrow transplants as part of their leukemia treaments. Shortly, after getting underway, Cru offered to let me join the boys in the rickshaw for the rest of the run. He pretty much ran the entire 10km pulling over 500 pounds. This guy is obviously in amazing shape. Along the way, plenty of runners were clapping and cheering on the boys and Cru. It was a very memorial day for all of us and Curtis, who already knew exactly who Terry Fox was and why he's special, has even more admiration after taking part in the event.
