In the summer of 2023, while still undergoing treatment for breast cancer, I rode in my first Pan-Mass Challenge. When I joined Team Duncan last year, I had no idea the impact the team, the story of Duncan, and the PMC experience would have on my life as a patient and a survivor. I met an incredible group of people and enjoyed the most magical first Pan-Mass Challenge experience. In September, my kids joined Team Duncan to ride in a PMC Kids Ride<\/a>, as we continue to raise money for the Breast Cancer Research Fund at DFCI<\/a>. Since then, I have completed my year of treatment and had my reconstructive surgery and I'm ready to ride again!<\/p>","category":["PMC Winter Cycle","Why I PMC","#WHYIPMC","PMC 2024","#OneInABillion","#PMC2024"],"pubDate":"Thu, 21 Dec 2023 16:05:30 GMT","author":"alfano@pmc.org (Bill Alfano)","guid":"https:\/\/wintercycle.org\/blog\/why-i-pmc-stephanie-taylor"},{"title":"PMC Winter Cycle Returns to Fenway Park in March 2024","link":"https:\/\/wintercycle.org\/blog\/pmc-winter-cycle-returns-to-fenway-park-in-march-2024","description":"
