The Terry Fox Run is an annual 5km fun run/walk held to raise money for cancer research, with the Auckland event on 14 September 2025.

It is suitable for participants of all ages and abilities and is an all-inclusive, non-competitive event – families, strollers, dogs are all welcome.

The run is named after Terry Fox, a young Canadian who set out to run across Canada after losing his right leg to cancer. Along the way he raised money for cancer research. In keeping with Terry Fox's wishes, there is no registration fee and no minimum fundraising requirements. One of the things that makes the event unique is that there is no corporate sponsorship. All funds donated go towards the Cancer Research Trust New Zealand.
