On Saturday, February 4, the Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC) will host the PMC Winter Cycle, where hundreds will hop on spin bikes at Fenway Park to raise lifesaving funding for cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Participants will ride inside The 521 Overlook, a brand new 7,000 square-foot venue located in centerfield that offers iconic views of the historic ballpark. This year, riders will also have the opportunity to spin alongside special celebrity guest Lisa Leslie – 2X WNBA Champion, 8X WNBA All Star, 4X Olympic gold medalist and Hall of Famer – who will be participating in the 8 a.m. session, as well as appearing at the event’s after party.
Each year, the PMC Winter Cycle brings together hundreds of people of varying athletic ability, who channel physical, mental and emotional energy to fight cancer. In 2022, the PMC Winter Cycle contributed to the organization’s record-breaking $69 million gift to Dana-Farber, 100 percent of which supported cancer research and treatment at the Institute. This year’s PMC Winter Cycle has a fundraising goal of $750,000, which will kickstart the organization’s 2023 fundraising efforts.
For the second year in a row, PMC Pedal Partners – pediatric patients at Dana-Farber’s Jimmy Fund Clinic – will inspire the PMC Winter Cycle riders participating. In addition to these Pedal Partners, PMC riders, sponsors, and volunteers will act as motivational speakers before each session, sharing why they ride, fundraise, and support the PMC in its mission to fund lifesaving cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber.
