Today the Pan-Mass Challenge presented two checks to the Jimmy Fund and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute: a $15 million annual contribution, plus an additional $2.5 million to established a PMC Sr. Investigatorship. The PMC is the largest bike-a-thon in the country in terms of raising money and is now responsible for approximately 45 percent of all annual Jimmy Fund revenue. Our 23-year history of giving now stands at over $86.4 million. Read the press release here.

As for myself, I ended up raising a total of $2,600, exceeding last year's donations by exactly $10.

After three weeks, the swelling from my bursitis is starting to show signs of receding, so perhaps I'll be able to get back on the bike in another week or two. This is the longest stretch I've gone without riding since my last bike was stolen more than two years ago.
