We're so proud of Canadians and people worldwide who are keeping Terry's dream alive.

I'm out here to share my son's story, to thank people for their contributions in helping to keep his dream alive.

I'm so proud to think that 25 years after Terry started this marathon, people are showing up and still believing in what he started.

Terry didn't want any glory out of his run and we don't want any glory either.

I don't want to see him.

There are hundreds of types of cancer, so there's a great deal of work to be done yet.
