Overview
- Sir Chris Hoy was diagnosed with stage four prostate cancer in 2023 and disclosed in October that the disease had spread to his bones.
- Doctors gave him a two to four year life expectancy, a prognosis he described as a “death sentence” that he refuses to let define him.
- At the Mustang Challenge Le Mans Invitational last weekend, Hoy and team-mate Chris Harris secured 20th place in the Mustang Dark Horse R, underscoring his determination to compete.
- His openness about living with incurable cancer has driven a surge in men seeking prostate health advice and boosted public awareness of late-stage diagnoses.
- Hoy is organising the Tour de4 charity cycle on September 7, 2025, with the goal of raising £1 million for UK cancer research and support.
