This year marks the 44th anniversary of Terry Fox runs across Canada. Once again, the Kingsville site will be at Lakeside Park at 10:30 am on Sunday, September 15th. Maps and participation certificates will be available.
Our 2024 navy blue Terry Fox t-shirts will be on sale all summer at Main Street Pharmacy and also Kingsville Xmas Block Party on Saturday, July 20 from 5-7:30 pm (Adults $25 and Youth $20).
Last year our Kingsville Site raised $16,153.
I hope that through our online fundraising, Kingsville and our neighbouring communities and businesses will take up the challenge to raise even more money this year.
You can run, walk, bike, urban pole, skateboard, or any other activity anywhere and anytime of the day you choose on September 15th to support our Kingsville Terry Fox Run.
If you can’t make it that day, you can aways do a virtual run on any day of your choice and your online donations will still be credited to our Kingsville site.
The theme this year is “No Matter What” highlighting how Terry never quit. No matter the distance, obstacles, journey or odds.
Think of what Terry went through daily, as he averaged a marathon a day on his journey.
Certainly, each of us can devote some time, money, and energy to honour our Canadian hero!
Register as a participant or create a team (family, friends, work team) and/or make a donation to our Terry Fox Run Kingsville site at:

If you’re looking for a team to join you can always register and join my MFit team at run.terryfox.ca/team/mfit.
We are asking all participants this year to collect their pledges online in order to make check-in on run day smoother and hassle-free.
Let’s make Terry and Kingsville proud!!
