TERRY FOX RUN

The ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP MALAYSIA @ Bandar Utama was one of the contributors for the Terry Fox Run that was held today at the Taman Tasik Titiwangsa. Last month on 20 October 2010, we had approached our fellow bootcampers at Bandar Utama to run and raised fund for cancer research under "Team Bootcamp Bandar Utama". Click HERE for details.

The run was only for 5km and there were many recruits that ran their first race including Aaraf Eid Pahamin & Kasih Iris Leona. We left our house at 8am after bidding farewell to Sista Dr Teratai Edithy Pahamin, Shazrul Asari and Shazrai whom left back for London after 2 weeks of holiday in Malaysia. The race was scheduled to start at 9am but Team BOOTCAMP @ Bandar Utama had all scheduled to meet at the field for a photos-shoot... obviously! we are a bunch of camwhores.

After illegally parking our car near the Istana Budaya, we walked to the starting position and arrived at the meeting-point to see dozens of others from OBC-BU that had already arrived.

TERRY FOX RUN

.

30 years ago, Terry Fox at the age of 18 was diagnosed with bone cancer and was told that he had to amputate his right leg above the knee. During his ordeal, he saw the intense pain and despair of many other cancer patient as well as the need for cancer research. To help others suffering from cancer, Terry Fox decided to run across Canada in an effort to raise funds.This became the marathon of hope and although Terry Fox died before his crusade, the legacy continued and every year since then, those that supported and donated for the cancer research would run the Terry Fox race around the world.
