I am very excited to ride Day 1 of the PMC again this year. It seems each year more friends are diagnosed with cancer. I am so grateful for the steady progress that researchers and clinicians have made to develop treatments for previously untreatable cancers. So many friends and family are my living proof of the importance of the groundbreaking research of Dana Farber Cancer Institute.

I hope that none of us will ever need to count on Dana Farber for treatment but if we do, or if our loved ones do, we will benefit from our proximity to one of the best cancer centers in the world.

Although I am not comfortable asking for donations, I am comforted by the knowledge that 100% of all funds raised throught the PMC flow through to DFCI.

I am honored to be a part of Team Duncan as I ride the PMC. Team Duncan is a group of riders who have been incredibly friendly and welcoming and who each have a story of their own experience with DFCI.

Thank you for considering a donation -- I am very grateful for your support.
