Los ciclistas llevan 5 meses entrenándose y pedalean por sus cercanos afectados de cáncer. Desde 2022, se han donado más de 125.000 dólares a organizaciones benéficas de América Latina a través del recorrido C2C4C. El C2C4C inaugural se celebró hace diez años en los Estados Unidos con el nombre de "Coast 2 Coast 4 Cancer". Los ciclistas de Europa se unieron al esfuerzo en 2016 para el "Country 2 Country 4 Cancer", Japón en 2021 y América Latina en 2022 para el "Continent 2 Continent 4 Cancer". C2C4C se ha convertido en una tradición establecida y una ocasión importante en Bristol Myers Squibb, con más de 14 millones de dólares donados a nivel mundial para la investigación del cáncer al día de hoy. ¿Quiénes son los ciclistas? Los participantes en el desafío C2C4C en América Latina son ciclistas novatos que se han comprometido a realizar cinco meses de entrenamiento intensivo para completar su segmento de tres días de ruta. Este año son más de 55 los empleados que pedalean en América Latina y su motivación para participar y avanzar en la investigación contra el cáncer es personal. Algunos pedalean en honor de quienes han perdido la vida a causa del cáncer o luchan actualmente contra la enfermedad. Otros han sufrido ellos mismos un diagnóstico de cáncer. Este año, el recorrido será más plural e inclusivo que nunca, ya que participarán empleados de siete países: Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia, México, Perú y Estados Unidos. Los empleados de Brasil participarán por primera vez. Juntos, sus kilómetros crearán más recuerdos para los enfermos de cáncer y sus queridos.
