Why I Ride ...

It’s hard to believe that my 5th Pan Mass Challenge will take place later this summer.  It seems like just yesterday I was suiting up in spandex and climbing aboard my bicycle for my very first training ride in preparation for the 200 mile, 2-day journey!  
 
 
As many of you surely know, riding in this event every year to raise money for cancer research and cancer care has become extremely important to me.  Kelly and I now plan our summer around PMC weekend [August 7-8] and those long training rides that I need to on the weekends.   Being involved with an event that has raised over $270 million for the Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston over its 30 year history is something we’re both so very proud of.  

The 2010 PMC will mark a turning point for Team Xaverian as for the first time the team will consist of Xaverian Brothers High School alumni, friends, and current students!  We’ll now have about 15 “adults” on the Team as well as 8-10 students.  Many of us will ride the 2-day Sturbridge to Bourne to Wellesley route while the students will ride the 1-day Wellesley Loop.  We plan to meet up at the final water-stop of the day and ride in together to the finish line at Babson College.  It should be a very powerful scene at finish line this year.  

Once again, all money raised by Team Xaverian will be earmarked to the Brain Tumor Clinic at Dana Faber that was started by a 1985 Xaverian graduate, Dr. Chris Turner.  If you’d like to contribute to the PMC this year simply click on the Donate to My Ride button below.  With my fundraising goal set at $6,000 this year, no donation is too small and remember that every penny of your donation goes directly to the Dana Farber Cancer Institute!   

Thanks again for your continued support and we hope to see you out along the roads of Massachusetts on PMC weekend!
