I learned this year that Terry Fox ran 26 miles per day...I couldn't imagine doing that on two healthy legs!! I'm glad our school takes part in this every year and makes our children aware of what only one person can accomplish when they set their mind to it!!

Terry Fox Run
This year marked the 17th Annual Terry Fox Run at the Champion School. And as a school they have raised over $81,000!!! Wow, for our little school that is quite an accomplishment!!! The video they showed this year to help inspire the kids was only a minute long so Calum didn't tear up like last year, but when Mr. Jackson talked a little bit of the inspiration Terry Fox was to him he chocked up which caused Calum to get teary!! Such a tender hearted little boy!!! Emry had to write down things she would wish for this week if she had a genie. Two of her wishes were to be able to see her Grandpa Puzey again and the other was for cancer not to exist. Such a sweet girl!!
