<p>Day one of the Pan Mass Challenge............111 mile bike ride from Sturbridge to Bourne...........I've always wanted to do a century and my friend Stacie is doing it too!  I'm looking forward to lots of beautiful spring and summer training rides!!!  Woohoo!  Longest I've ever ridden is 60 miles, so this will be a great challenge!!</p>

<p>100% of the proceeds go to the Jimmy Fund/Dana Farber in the quest for a cure for cancer.  In 1980 my sister Debbie was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma and the treatment she received at Dana Farber saved her life.  </p>

<p>Julie, that's great.  Word of warning, once you do the Saturday ride ou will want to do the 2 day next year.  If you have any questions feel free to ping me, I have done it 3 years.</p>

<p>Very cool Julie.</p>

Are you doing it this year too?  I was afraid the training for the 2 day would be too much so I picked Saturday.................any suggestions regarding fundraising would be appreciated!<br>

<p>So cool!!! Sounds like a fantastic ride. And definitely for a good cause.</p>

<p>Good luck on the fundraising.  </p>

<p>Two day rides aren't that bad.  Train by doing 50-75% Saturday, 25-50% Sunday.  Just go into it knowing that your butt is gonna hurt the second day.  </p>
