The goal is
to reach Fenway Park on Sunday, July 11, before the start of the game between the first-place Sox and the Philadelphia Phillies. The fundraising walk to Fenway is called "Fenway For our Fathers," with 100% of the money raised going to the incredible Jimmy Fund, an organization that is near and dear to Mainers and the Red Sox. The Jimmy Fund supports Boston's Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, raising funds for adult and pediatric cancer care.
Fenway For Our Fathers
According to Google Maps, the distance is 109 miles with a total walking time of around 36 hours. Of course, the quartet will not be doing this all at once, but more likely over four days. So, to this intrepid crew from Maine, we say, Good Luck, stay safe, and see you at the ballpark!

Denise Payette-Holmes, Peter Wildes, Link Erskine and Joe McHugh, who grew up together in South Portland, set off on their journey at noon Tuesday with plans to reach Fenway Park Sunday in time for the start of the Red Sox game against the Philadelphia Phillies.
