Description
Life works in mysterious ways. Just ask Indiana native Adam Bennett.
In 2015, he was a strong marathoner. He spent decades coaching high school cross country and track.
"I've done a dozen or more half-marathons," Adam said. "I ran the Indy Mini a lot. Four or five marathons."
Despite feeling great physically, Adam was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, or MS, on Sept. 10, 2015. MS is a chronic autoimmune disease that attacks the central nervous system of the body.
