When found early, breast cancer is a curable disease. Our goal is to provide free mammograms to those women in greatest need.We know many women who have breast cancer. Some will be cured, but some will not. Getting regular mammograms is the best screening tool we have to find cancer when it is curable. Rather than just donating money, Zach felt it would mean much more to ride to “earn” the tests.

American Fork Hospital and the Utah County Health Department have agreed to sponsor a free mammogram for each 5,000 vertical feet Zach climbs on his bike. Utah Valley Radiologists have agreed to read the mammograms for free as well. The goal is for 50 mammograms-that is a quarter of a million vertical feet!! The project has pushed Zach to ride harder and longer than ever. So far he has climbed 125,000 since the beginning of July!! After his ride in The Tour of Utah, he will be at 150,000 feet. This act of hard training (and pain) makes the project much more personal, as our lives have been touched by so many with this devastating disease.
