Jason Potter is another of our extraordinary ambassadors – However, he is extraordinary for a whole other reason too. Growing up in Perth, Jason and his family were very active including camping, swimming, and riding along the coast taking in the stunning ocean views. 17 years ago, Jason moved to Melbourne and after several visits back to Perth to see Mum, he noticed she did not seem herself. Later, mum (Marilyn) was diagnosed with MS and since her diagnosis, Jason has flown over to take part in every MSWA Ocean Ride he can to show his support. Jason has since decided to embark on the adventure of a lifetime, cycling from Sydney to Perth, and then taking on the 120km MSWA Ocean Ride Challenge! Over 4,000km across Australia and intending to raise over $100,000 to fight MS in support of his mum. As Jason quotes, “If anything, mum is more determined than ever to stay active, such as her daily walks and community volunteering through the Swimming Club in Madia Vale.” Marilyn has also been one of MSWA Ocean Ride’s longest volunteers and will be cheering Jason past the finish line at Ocean Ride this year. Inspiring doesn’t even begin to comprehend how we feel about Jason, and we are so excited to see his journey continue (Yes, he is currently en route, heading over to WA now!)
