Ron Haye's MS Journey: Cycling, Fundraising, Hope

It's March 27, Canada News Today starts now, AI-powered and ready.

I'm Cory with the story.

Ron Hay, a 60-year-old from Vancouver, Washington, was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis back in

2010.

Instead of slowing down, he's made staying active his top priority, sticking to a strict

diet and tough workouts to keep his mobility as steady as possible, despite the disease.

Over the years, Hay has pushed himself through long bike rides across the country, triathlons,

and even Ironman events that cover swimming, cycling, all-sea, and marathons.

He focuses on finishing strong, no matter the pace, turning challenges like balance issues

into personal victories through consistent training.

His wife Terry has been right by his side, helping with treatments and lifestyle changes

that cut back on inflammation, causing foods and drinks.

Together, they've built a tight-knit community of cyclists, brewers, and musicians, who rally

around those living with multiple sclerosis.

That spear shines at events like MS.

Fest held at Brickhouse Bar and Grill, where local brewers pour taste to raise funds for

the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.

Hay's group, Team Road Kill, has brought in over half a million dollars through rides

and similar efforts.

Today, with better oral meds and infusions replacing those old, painful shots, Hay's

condition feels stable and he's optimistic of our research.

Breakthrough is ahead, fueled by community support like this.
