Fox had run 5,376 kilometers and worn out 21 pairs of running shoes.
His determination, decency and sense of humor garnered the appreciation of all Canadians
Fox died 11 months later, on June 28, 1981, just shy of his 23rd birthday. Days after his death, Canada's Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau said, "It occurs very rarely in the life of a
nation, that the courageous spirit of one person unites all people in the celebration of his life and in the mourning of his death."
