This August 3rd & 4th, for the third year in a row, I am riding the Pan-Mass Challenge to support the vital, groundbreaking research and clinical treatments at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. I continue to be inspired to ride by our dear friend Perry Pomeroy, who is battling lung cancer. My family and I have followed her journey as she has been treated at Dana-Farber with cutting-edge protocols, receiving amazing care along the way. The treatments are definitely challenging, but also incredibly effective, as Perry is now past three years since her diagnosis!

I look forward once again to riding with Team Stuie and also with other friends on back-to-back days.  The sense of comeraderie and common purpose when we ride together is truly inspiring.

100% of the donations to my ride will be directed to research conducted by Perry’s physician Dr. Mark Awad and his team. They are focused on lung cancer treatment and cure, an effort vital to Perry and so many others. Lung cancer has been underfunded relative to other cancers, so please help me rectify the imbalance! I am so gratified by the generous support of so many friends and family in the past, and I hope to continue and even expand that support each year. Thanks so much and wish me luck!
