Jessie Axsom, Lizzy Powell, and Hannah Kotarski participated in the 4K for Cancer ride from Baltimore to Portland. They left Baltimore on May 31 and arrived in Portland on August 8, a 4,000+ mile adventure that raised money for the Ulman Cancer Fund. Before and during the trip, Jessie Axom collected and processed blood samples from her team members. These samples will be used for her honors thesis on hematological changes in recreational cyclists exposed to high-volume training.
