Thousands of miles. Hundreds of donations. One goal.

The Pan-Mass Challenge organizers just sent riders a quick list of some statistics from this years rides.  Here’s the breakdown:

• Registered:             5,216
• Off the line:           4,949
• % – Male / Female:      65/35
• % – Alumni / 1st Year:  75/25
• Avg. Years in PMC:      4.6
• Average Age of Riders:  43
• 2-day:                  3,557
• 1-day:                  943
• 1-day Sunday:           449
• Teens: 13-19            176
• Over 70:                39
• Volunteer/Ride          36
• Sturbridge Sat:         2,521
• Wellesley Sat:          1,978
• States:                 36
• Countries:              10
• Volunteers:             3,000
• Kids Rides:             36
• # of Kids:              7,000

Quite impressive numbers.  It’s amazing that the organizers can consistenly, and with apparent flawlessness, organize an event with these numbers.  The numbers are capped but it certainly seems that the total donations are down slightly over last year, most likely as a result of the economy.
