My hero that I chose, would be Terrance Stanley Fox (Terry Fox), the reason I chose him would be because of his determination, courage, selflessness, and his goals. He was a Humanitarian, and athlete, and a Cancer Research Activist, he was diagnosed with malignant tumour in his right leg, and soon after that he decided to run for his Marathon Of Hope, which is a cross-country run, to raise money, and awareness for cancer research. After a while cancer spread to his lungs, “I’m gonna do my best, I’ll fight, I promise I won’t give up” were the words of Terry when he was being treated back in B.C. Terry found life more rewarding and challenging with his pain. He gave people with disabilities confidence and dignity. The Marathon of Hope Foundation
