I'm excited to share that I'm participating in the Pan Mass Challenge (PMC).

My participation will be in memory of my dad, Russ Sample, who we lost to kidney cancer in Hailey, Idaho in June 2018. More specifically, I'll be riding for the Centers for Early Detection and Interception program which is actively involved in improving early cancer diagnosis in small communities throughout the United States.

Among his many passions in life, my dad was an avid cyclist. He enjoyed cycling the bike paths of the Netherlands and the mountain trails of Killington, VT and Sun Valley, Idaho.
