London: Six-time Olympic cycling champion Chris Hoy revealed Saturday that he has terminal cancer and has been told by doctors he has "two to four years" to live.
The 48-year-old former track racer announced in February that he had been diagnosed with the disease and was undergoing chemotherapy but insisted the treatment was "going really well".
However, the Scottish sporting legend has now told The Sunday Times that he knew at the time his illness was terminal.
When asking doctors how long he had left, he said he was told: "Two to four years".
"We were all born and we all die, and this is just part of the process," Hoy told The Sunday Times.
