Greetings all,
I am proud to join Pedal the Cause in the fight against cancer again in 2024! I have been a part of this amazing organization for several years now since my life was personally impacted. Please help me strive in creating a world without cancer!
Most of you know that my life was dramatically affected by cancer. My dad, Craig, was diagnosed in 2012 with a brain tumor the size of a golf ball and cancer throughout his organs. After several surgeries, he has been cancer free for 12 years now. Cancer may have started his fight but my dad ended it. Much like my story, I am sure that you, or someone you love, has been affected by some type of cancer. Pedal The Cause is wanting to help us. Here is what is amazing...100% of your donation will fund lifesaving cancer research at Siteman Cancer Center and Siteman Kids at St. Louis Children's Hospital. We can't cure cancer without research and we can't do research without financing. So, friends and family, I ask you to join me in this fight; whether it be in strength, the power of prayer, or by donation. If not for your current cancer warriors, then ride in remembrance of those who lost the battle prior to a cure. Do it for your babies, your mom and dad, your husband or wife, your best friend... Do it for our future. We have two options, medically and emotionally: give up or fight like hell. - Lance Armstrong.
Below are a couple links if you have time to read more about my Dad's journey and where some of my motivation comes from being a rider.
