Sir Chris Hoy gives cancer health update saying 'everything's good'
Sir Chris Hoy gives cancer health update saying 'everything's good' The Olympian said in October that his diagnosis is terminal Sir Chris Hoy poses at the Laureus World Sports Awards Madrid 2025 at Galería de Cristal on April 21, 2025 Sir Chris Hoy says he has entered 'a bit of a stability stage' in his cancer treatment and is appreciating life 'more than ever'. The six-time Olympic cycling champion revealed in February 2024 he was undergoing treatment, including chemotherapy, and said in October that his diagnosis was terminal and he had been told by doctors that he had two to four years to live. 'I'm doing well,' the 49-year-old Scot said on Sky Sports News. 'It feels like I've entered a bit of a stability stage at the moment and I'm feeling good, exercising, riding a bike, busy. Most importantly cancer's not the first thing I think about in the morning when I wake up and it's not the last thing I think about when I go to bed at night. I think we've got into a rhythm now where it's part of our lives and we manage that and crack on. 'It feels like it's been one of the busiest periods of my life, the last few months, just doing everything: fun stuff, family stuff, work, travel. I feel good. I'm on constant medications, constant treatment, but it's not interfering too much with my life and the most important thing is it's working, so I'm stable at the moment, everything's good. Making hay while the sun shines.' As well as six Olympic golds, the Edinburgh-born athlete won 11 world championships and 34 World Cup titles by the time he retired from competitive racing in 2013. He added: 'I can't believe the position I'm in now compared to 18 months ago, I never imagined I'd be able to get to this point where I'm actually living life. Article continues below 'And not just living life, but actually appreciating it more than ever and able to enjoy the little things. It's not just about doing bucket-list stuff and doing massive things, it's about appreciating the daily, mundane fun of life.'
