Alex is participating in his longest run ever – the Maritime 50k Fox
Run, in honour of Terry Fox, on September 19th. I’ll be biking the
first 37+ Kms and walking the last 12.9 across the Confederation
Bridge between New Brunswick to PEI. This 50Km ( ~ 31 mile) run will
include 3 provinces and cross 2 provincial borders. Full details are
here: http://therunman.blogspot.com/2010/09/maritime-50k-fox-run.html
Â
In the past a number of you have supported the Terry Fox Run by
sponsoring Alex and I hope you’ll consider doing so again.
Â
Thanks!

Alex was the youngest of these 15 runners. Although he wasn’t alive
when Terry Fox ran through PEI, he’s been a fan from a very early age.

I biked along 36.62K on the mainland (joined the runners a couple of Km up the road from where they started) and walked the 12.9K bridge (and another K to the parking lot).
Thanks to those of you who sponsored Alex – The original plan was for
the group to to run 3 provinces, cross 2 borders and raise 1 thousand
dollars. I believe they about doubled that.
