2025 Pelotonia Awards: Pelotonia Kid of the Year, Nolan Wince
| December 3, 2025
Each year, we honor a handful of individuals who have gone above and beyond in their support of accelerating innovative cancer research with the Pelotonia Awards. These members of the Pelotonia community are champions in the fight against cancer, embodying the relentless commitment to the mission of Ending Cancer that defines the grassroots movement. Their personal journeys are inspiring, and their extraordinary contributions deserve to celebrated.
The Pelotonia Kid of the Year Award recognizes a Pelotonia Kids Rider whose spirit, enthusiasm, and commitment to fundraising inspire the entire community and showcase the power of the next generation in furthering our mission of ending cancer.
2025 Pelotonia Kid of the Year Award winner: Nolan Wince.
At just nine years old, Nolan Wince has shown a level of courage and optimism that moves everyone who meets him. Diagnosed at age four with Medulloblastoma Sonic Hedgehog and Li-Fraumeni Syndrome, Nolan has faced brain cancer with extraordinary strength. In 2024, he became a direct beneficiary of Pelotonia-funded research, participating in a clinical trial at Nationwide Children’s Hospital that gave him new hope and new possibilities for recovery.
This year, Nolan joined Pelotonia Kids – Team Huntington, where every dollar raised supports pediatric cancer research. Through his efforts, he raised more than $300 and inspired countless others to contribute to the cause. His energy and excitement are proof that even the smallest Riders can make a big impact.
For Nolan and his family, every day is a reason to keep fighting and believing in the power of community. Nolan’s determination and joy remind us that courage knows no age and that the future of the movement is in good hands.
Congratulations to Nolan Wince on receiving the 2025 Pelotonia Kid of the Year Award!
