Terry Fox Run
The annual Terry Fox Run has become a fall tradition in Canada, with more than 650 communities, big and small, urban and rural, English and French, fundraising for cancer research. The Run gives communities the chance to come together to celebrate the impact they can have as a force for good.
On Sunday, September 17, 2023, registration starts at 9 a.m. at Four Seasons Resort and Residences Whistler at 4591 Blackcomb Way. There will be light breakfast snacks, juice, coffee and water.
At 10:30 a.m., a local fitness instructor will lead a fun, invigorating warm-up.
The event itself takes place at 11 a.m. with the Whistler Fire Rescue Service leading the way. There are two routes around the picturesque Fitzsimmons Nature Trail to choose from: a leisurely, family-friendly option and a more challenging one.
Then the run starts with a fire truck and the Whistler Fire Department leading the way.
Once back at the Resort, everyone is invited to enjoy a delicious Four Seasons lunch, complete with live children’s entertainment, all by donation. Before and after the run, people can bid on items at the silent auction, with numerous fantastic prizes: a stay at Four Seasons Resort and Residences Whistler; a stay at Four Seasons Resort Mexico City; vouchers for Whistler activities and restaurants; and much more.
All funds raised go to The Terry Fox Foundation. Donations support impactful research by the Terry Fox Research Institute that makes the greatest difference where it matters most – in patients’ lives.
