Event description
Join a Dubai tradition since 1994! Take part in The Terry Fox Run for Cancer Research on Saturday, March 8, 2025!
This non-competitive fun run will fund cancer research projects in the UAE supported by The Terry Fox Foundation.
Do not miss this unique opportunity to make a difference and celebrate the legacy of Terry Fox, a Canadian amputee athlete, humanitarian, and cancer research activist who ran 5,373 km across Canada to raise funds for cancer research in 1980.
This 2.5 or 5 km family event is open to all ages and abilities. Strollers are welcome, and you can run or walk the course. The venue is dog-friendly, so feel free to bring your four-legged friend along! Be ready to have fun and support cancer research together - see you on the start line!
The Terry Fox Run proceeds will be donated to Al Jalila Foundation to support cancer research in UAE.
If you cannot run/walk, contribute your time and support the event by registering as a volunteering marshal or manning the registration desk and hydration stations.
« With special guest, Mr. Fred Fox, brother of Terry Fox. »
We would like to thank the American School of Dubai for organizing this event as part of the Canada Week in Dubai celebrations.
