This is my first year riding the PMC and I'm excited to invite you to join me in raising money for cancer research. 100% of rider-raised revenue will go directly to support the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's tireless commitment to finding a cure. This is the PMC’s 44th year and we’re closing in on $1 Billion raised!
The motivation for me is personal. In May of 2023, I was diagnosed with prostate cancer and underwent a radical prostatectomy. One year later, I’m fortunate to share that I’m cancer free. My journey over the past year has undoubtedly been one of the most challenging chapters of my life and I’m grateful every day to serve as living proof of the progress we've made in the fight against this disease.
However, my PMC ride isn't just about my personal triumph. It's about shining a light on the advances we've made and the critical need to continue the efforts in researching a cure. Did you know that since 1992, survival rates for prostate cancer have improved by a remarkable 50%? This incredible progress is a direct result of the tireless dedication and groundbreaking research conducted by top hospitals in our area.
By supporting my ride, you're not just backing one man on a bike; you're investing in the future of cancer research, treatment, and prevention. Together, we can move toward a future where cancer is no longer a threat. I feel fortunate to be able to ride and show my support to the entire cancer community, including those who are no longer with us, those who have survived, and those who are currently in the fight against this disease.
Please consider donating any amount. Thanks in advance for your support!
