Jim: “I, like everyone, know friends and family, people that have been diagnosed. I felt I was particularly lucky because none of my family members had even been diagnosed, let alone had it, or died from it. I just felt like I can give back, pay it forward—and then whoops, it'll be me. I didn't realize it was going to be me who got diagnosed. Whether you guys personally have had cancer, we all need to help out the world. And this is one way to do it. I didn't choose to ride a million miles on my bike. But, I walk a bunch of laps and raise a bunch of money. “

Maria: “I was numb. I didn't even think about it that long when she told me about it, you know, and then I went through it right away because she said was very early, otherwise I would probably be worse if I didn't go through chemo. I'm cancer-free right now.”
