Peter Halper got some much-needed rest when he stopped in Phoenix Tuesday while bicycling across the country to help find a cure for childhood cancer.
His mission started with his niece, Emery, who sadly, at just 3 years old died from neuroblastoma.
He ran 26 miles every day for six days with just one rest day. His 11-minute pace over the span of four months raised more than $160,000.Now the 55-year-old Wisconsin resident is at it again, this time on a bicycle, riding cross country multiple times. When he feels like he wants to quit, he remembers the families he rides for. So, he shares a story of a young cancer patient every day on social media.The ride is longer this go around, so the goal is bigger. He hopes to raise $3 million.
