Personal Hero:

Terry Fox - He vowed to run across Canada (i.e., the Marathon of Hope - 26+ miles each day) to raise awareness and money for cancer research. He ran with one healthy leg and one prosthetic leg, because he had already lost it to cancer. He didn't finish his trek because cancer spread to his lungs. He died at the age of 22.

Favorite Sports to Watch:

NHL Hockey (of course!) and Beach volleyball
