Fox 'trot' for research

The 7th Annual Terry Fox 10K Run/5K Walk will be held Sept. 13 and 14 at the Four Seasons Resort Maui.

Last year's race drew 350 runners, and raised $41,000. This year's goal is $75,000 for the Cancer Research Center of Hawaii and American Cancer Society's Maui unit.

The race begins at 7 a.m. Saturday at the Four Seasons entrance. The registration fee is $20 on or before Sept. 14 and $25 the day of the event.
