The 46th annual Pan-Mass Challenge is officially in the books. The two-day summer cycling event concluded last Sunday (Aug. 3) after raising millions of dollars for cancer research and patient care at the world-renowned Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (Jimmy Fund).
Last year, the PMC donated $75 million to Dana-Farber, and was shooting for $76 million this year. By early Thursday morning, Aug. 7, it had already collected $58,450,282 million, but there’s still time to reach that lofty $76 million goal as individual donor pages of the cyclists will remain open for last minute contributions.
There were more than 10,000 riders and volunteers – 53 of them alone hailed from Winchester – participating in this year’s charitable ride around the Commonwealth on several different courses.
