The Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC) is a two-day charity bike ride across the state of Massachusetts. Since 1980, the PMC has raised over $1 billion dollars to support the Jimmy Fund and to fund cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. I am excited to be riding the PMC for the third year in a row alongside two of my best friends and our Biker's Dozen teammates. For the first time this year, I will be taking on the full two-day ride, which covers 162 miles.

Cancer touches every family, including my own. I will be riding in honor of the loved ones who I’ve lost to cancer, my friends and family members who are currently battling the disease, and those who are now fortunate enough to say that they are cancer-free.

Thanks to cancer research, treatments continue to improve outcomes for those who are diagnosed with cancer, in all forms and stages. But there is more research to be done and more lives to save.

Please consider making a donation to my PMC ride. 100 percent of each dollar raised goes directly to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute to fund critical cancer research and treatment. By supporting my ride, you are supporting countless cancer patients. No dollar amount is too small. Thank you!
