Terry calls his run, the "Marathon of Hope"He keep running. He was often pain from his artificial leg, but he running fight for pain. because, he runs in his pain for illness children. Terry didn't run well, and he can't talk, Terry was very sick, he was bad pain and he went to the hospital. Terry couldn't finish his road, but He want to money for sick children.
