Becuase Cancer Sucks and I refuse to not fight back.
This will by my 7th year riding the Pan Mass Challenge and it's going to be historic! This year, the we will pass $1BILLION donated to Dana Farber and I can't wait to be a part of it. The training is a lot, the ride is exhausting, but the results are amazing.
Cancer first entered my life when I was 9 and found out my mother had been diagnosed with ovarian cancer. For years I felt as if there was nothing I could really do to make a meanigful difference. That all changed 6 years ago, when I went for my first Sturbridge to Provincetown ride. Being part of a ride that raised $58 MILLION (just in 2018) for Dana Farber, felt like I was finally punching back. That feeling, while amazing, only left me with a greater desire to do what I can to help in the fight against cancer. Last year, while we tried a new route (Wellesley to Provincetown) the PMC raised $72,000,000.
100% of the your donation goes to Dana Farber Cancer Institue!!
This year, I ride in memory of those we have lost including Donna my mom, Dottie, Aunt Kathy, Chaim Schechter, Steph, and Kathleen and so many others, as well as to honor all of those who fought and won their battle or who are still fighting including JT, JOD, DR, AW, KS.
