Maureen Manley, Local Hero

Maureen “Mo” Manley was destined for the Barcelona Olympics. As a bicycle road racer, Maureen was on cereal boxes and was ready to take her place among the Lance Armstrong’s of the world. Then while racing in the Women’s Tour de France she lost her vision and veered off the road and crashed. A hospital trip later, Maureen’s path was radically altered when she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). Determined, she focused her champion mindset to a new journey, exploring ways to maximizing her creative potential to embody the health and well-being she desired.

She advocates the importance of exercise, has completed triathlons and returned to competitive cycling in 2003, twelve years into her diagnosis of MS.
