Last Sunday’s West Shore edition of the Terry Fox Run saw 138 people show up, despite the rain and wind.
The participants combined to raise almost $6,000 for cancer research, a total that event organizer Courtney Hill noted would grow as the funds from merchandise had yet to be included.
Hill said regardless of the inclement weather on the morning, she could not have asked for a better day, adding that she was truly touched by the love and hope that filled the Royal Roads Recreation Centre.
