Inspiration is goal of cyclist with MS [Jacksonville Times]
It might be surprising that a 28-year-old multiple sclerosis sufferer just completed her fourth cross-country bicycle trek.
But that perception is exactly what Eve Steiner wants to change."I really feel like the word needs to get out that a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis is not a death sentence. It's not a go-home-and-sit-on-the-couch-and-cry-until-you're-done [situation]," she said. "You've got to take a pro-active approach. You've got to keep moving. I think: Use it or lose it."
Steiner, who has relapsing-remitting MS, certainly follows her own advice. On Saturday, she ended a 2,250-mile cycling tour of the East Coast that took her from Maine to Jacksonville. It was her fourth cross-country trek and the second to end in Jacksonville.
In 1998, four years after she was diagnosed with MS at age 16, Steiner traveled from Seattle to Washington, D.C., as part of an environmental fund-raiser. Four years later, she rode from Anchorage, Alaska, to Mexico, this time stopping in major cities to raise awareness for sufferers of MS, a chronic neurological disease that affects the central nervous system.MORE
