Episode Details

Pelotonia returns this weekend, uniting thousands of cyclists in a powerful mission to fund cancer research — since 2009, it’s raised nearly $350 million for the James Cancer Hospital. For Steven Smith, once a rider who never imagined becoming a cancer patient, every mile now carries deep personal meaning: he’s a leukemia survivor, cancer-free for almost 15 years, and rides not just for himself but for his wife Melonie, who’s battled recurrent ovarian cancer three times. His journey mirrors the event’s broader impact — CEO Joe Apgar says the funds are critical fuel for groundbreaking science, and with over 8,000 riders, 3,000 volunteers, and tens of thousands of spectators expected this year, Pelotonia proves that collective determination is changing lives, one pedal stroke at a time.
