Terry Fox Run 26 September 2004 Can't Post

Hi all,

I am keen to join the Terry Fox Run (charitable organisation for cancer research) which will be held on Sunday, 26 Sept 2004 at 7am onwards in the Lake Gardens. This is organised by the Canadian Embassy and the Terry Fox Foundation. All you have to do to join in the run to purchase a T-Shirt at RM30.00 for adults , RM20 for students from the lobby of the Regent Hotel, KL (opposite KL Plaza) and show up at the Lake Gardens at the appointed time (take the Jalan Parliament entrance and follow the signboards). But the BEST news is that we can all BRING OUR FURKIDS FOR THE RUN!!!! (5km) around the Lake Gardens. I heard this announcement over the radio yesterday and I called up the organisers today and it is confirmed. You can either run, jog, walk, cycle, rollerblade, use a wheelchair for the run. The run is non-competitive so no prizes will be given. Event should end around 11am.

To millions around the world, Terry Fox is synonymous with courage and determination. Despite passing away 23 years ago, his legacy lives on. The world remembers the young man's attempt in running across Canada - with an artificial leg - to raise funds for cancer research. This year's run (9th year in Malaysia) hopes to raise RM100,000 for the Cancer Research Initiatives Foundation. You can read about Terry Fox at www.terryfoxrun.org

Food will also be served after the run. If you need more info, call 2149 4155 or 2718 3333 and ask for Amelie/Izam.

Anyone who is keen to attend, would be much obliged if you could put your name down here. But please go and purchase your own t-shirt ok? .. looking forward to meeting you at the run.

The Lake Gardens is located opposite the Parliament. Take Jalan Parliament and if you are coming from City Centre, you will have to exit Jalan Kinabalu on your left (am not sure the name of the road but it is the outer road beside The Royal Selangor Club main entrance which is on Dataran Merdeka). Turn into Jalan Parliament (you will see Bank Negara on your right) go another 500m and then take the first traffic lights on the left into the Lake Gardens (also known as Taman Tasik Perdana). This is the same place where the Bird Park is located. Hope this helps. If you still do not know, email me at lizorion@yahoo.com and give me your fax no. Can even fax map to you.

Re: [vicfion] Terry Fox Run 26 September 2004 [In reply to] Can't Post

Hi Fiona, am glad to hear that your doggies loved the biscuits!! Will tell u where it comes from at the next JT. By the way, the ones it gave out have flea-repelling properties!!

About the run, I decided to join for charity purposes also for the opportunity to take leeloo jalan-jalan. At first when I told Jerome about the 5km stretch, he was like 'no way'. Then I told him it's not a competition lah, you can walk all the way. I hope a lot more owners and their doggies could join in as the more , the merrier and when we're busy chatting, the distance might even seem short.

And Fiona, don't worry lah you definitely have more stamina than me!!!

Re: [wernnee] Terry Fox Run 26 September 2004 [In reply to] Can't Post

Hi folks,

I am glad to see so many charitable souls out there. I will buy a t-shirt to donate but will not go for the run after all:-( I know that I am the one who suggested this in the first place but now I dont have a dog to go with and it is too painful to see people with their beloved furkids. Hope you understand. After much persuasion by parents and BF over the weekend, I have decided to send my Bailey to my parents home temporarily until I get myself a house for her to run about. She is suffering too much in my small apartment and being left alone for 9 hours when I go to work is just not healthy for her. As my parents are retired they can be with her 24x7 so Bailey will not be short on love and affection. Plus Bailey will have tons of space to run around and can amuse herself in my mum's garden . I will drive back to see her on weekends. I am really so depressed today and am alreasy missing her so much. Cannot wait to see her on weekends.

Christine,

First of all, I am extremely sorry to hear about your separation with Bailey. I totally understand your feelings cause I once at your shoe. Which apartment you staying huh?

Why cannot bring Bailey along this sunday? Pick her up from your parent's home and bring her there for walk. That would be great.

Hi WernNee,

My parents reside in Ipoh and it is a bit too far to just pick up Bailey for a run. I wish my parents are residing nearby within the Klang Valley or even Seremban. I am staying in Faber Heights Condo in Taman Desa and looking for a house to purchase. Am limited by budget as well as location.

Re: [vicfion] Terry Fox Run 26 September 2004 [In reply to] Can't Post

You're going!!! Yay!!! I rarely do charity stuff, at the moment only donating to MAKNA only, so want to get more involved now. I understand how a lot of people cannot afford to pay for operation coz I went for an operation because of a lump in my breast 3 years ago and it's not cheap. So I know a lot of people need funding.

About your cooking, I'm sure you're being modest!!! But as I said, you're supermom!!

I got the biscuits from my bro, he gets tons of biscuits for leeloo so now can share share with JT gang!! More goodies to come!!

hi christine,

i brought yogurtWink (my mini schnauzee) for the run last year not knowing that dogs are not allowed in Lake Garden! but to my surprise we are so welcome by runners (mostly foreigners). some regret leaving their fur kids at home.

are you so sure we can bring dogs? i just call up, i ve got the answer is no!Unsure

but i think i will still try to get in with yogurt.

Hi All,

I called up the organizers today and they checked with the lake garden people. It seems that pets are not allowed because Lake Gardens do not allow pets. So sorry but me and wernnee will have to pull out of this one. Want to spend some quality time with my furkid on the weekend.

Hi guys,

I am very sure that dogs are allowed. They even said this over Light and Easy and I called the number which i have posted and the person I spoke to assured me that pets are allowed. I would not have send out the posting if pets are not allowed. I specifically asked whether dogs are allowed and I specifically told the organisers that I want to be certain as I do not want to offend any Muslims out there.
