Foothills residents will be joining Canadians across the country this weekend while taking part in the 35th annual Terry Fox Run.

Donations from the event are going towards the Terry Fox Foundation, which has raised more than $650 million since its inception.

People can walk, run, bike, and bring their dogs on the 8 kilometer route that kicks off at the Crystal Shores Beach House.

Participants wont go hungry as a hot dug lunch will be provided along with coffee and drinks.

Registration for the event starts at 9:30 a.m. with the run starting at 11 a.m.
