Nearly 100 Wellesley residents riding & raising funds at Pan-Mass Challenge

August 1, 2025 by Bob Brown

Of the 6,500 or so riders at this weekend’s Pan-Mass Challenge, nearly 100 of them hail from Wellesley. That’s only fitting given the big fundraiser for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute includes routes that start and end at Babson College on Aug. 2-3.

The PMC’s goal this year is to raise $76 million for cancer research and patient care.
