he was competitive
Lance Armstrong changed our lives today because he helped raise so much money for the cancer awareness and made people believe that they can get through cancer and they can be strong.
Lance Armstrong had prostate cancer which was treated by surgery and chemotherapy. He has definitely never required a solid organ transplant, and as far as I can ascertain, he has never had a bone-marrow transplant or stem-cell transplant either. However prednisolone does turn up in most chemotherapy regimes (in fact, predisolone is used in to help treat many medical conditions).
he origanlly went to Dallas Elementry school and had to move because of his parents splitting up so he then went to Plano Elementry school Texas and found it very hard ot fit in Plano being the Footy crazy twn and lance not knowing anything about football.
No Lance is not awesome. Lance Armstrong on the other hand, is very awesome.

In 1999, Lance Armstrong won the Tour de France for the first time, using a Trek 5200 bicycle. In future races, Armstrong rode other Models of Trek Bikes, notably including the 14.5 pound Trek 5900 SL in 2003, which was banned the following year due to new weight requirements for the Tour de France (the rule required all bicycles taking part in the race to weigh at least 15 pounds - or 6.8 kilograms).
No, Lance Armstrong did not lie about having testicular cancer which spread to his brain and lungs in 1996. His doctors told him he had a 50/50 chance of survival when, in fact, they told him a white lie and the prognosis was far worse. Lance Armstrong underwent extreme chemotherapy and was given medications along with it. This could have contributed to the rumors he was taking other drugs to enhance his performance in cycling. In 1997 Lance Armstrong started the Lance Armstrong Foundation which provides education and care for cancer patients and the Foundation also funds cancer research.
To HELP others survive Cancer.This was a noble gesture by Lance Armstrong through his Livestrong foundation to help premote Cancer awareness and to unite people in the Fight Against cancerBeing a cancer survivor himself, he thought that he'd put his fame to some good use by starting a foudnation that would support other cancer victims.
Lance Armstrong has been a role model for many due to defeating cancer and continuing to compete (and win) in the Tour de'France and other bicycle races.
Livestrong bracelets were made for the Lance Armstrong Foundation in 2004 to raise money for cancer survivorship. It is made from yellow silicone and many other charities have copied the idea.
Several factors contributed to Lance Armstrong's success as a cyclist:Genetics. The maximal oxygen uptake rate, known as VO2 max, is something that can be developed through training, but is also limited by heredity. Lance Armstrong's VO2 max, has been reported to be 85 ml/kg/min. Even more significant to his success is his power to weight ratio. Lance is 5'9" tall and 165 lbs., a body type well-suited to hill-climbing. Between 1992, when he competed in the Summer Olympics, and 1999, when he won his first Tour de France, Lance lost 15 lbs., and increased his power output by 9%.Focus. Unlike most of his competitors, Lance focused his training program exclusively on the Tour de France and did not compete in many of the other races leading up to it.Teamwork. Nothing succeeds like success and the teams built around Lance were chosen from the best riders in the world. The contribution of USPS/Discovery team director and master tactician Johan Bruyneel cannot be overstated.
His major wins include the 1993 UCI Road World Championship Road Race in Oslo, Norway, the US National Road Race Championship in 1993, the Clasica de San Sebastian in 1995, La Fleche Wallonne in 1996, the Tour de Suisse in 2001 and the Criterium du Dauphine Libere in both 2002 and 2003, but Armstrong has many wins in many events other than the Tour de France.
Well, one of the old Country and Western singers once said "Why is everyone so concerned about Lance Armstrong taking drugs" For all that its worth, he won bike races while on drugs. When I took drugs, I couldn´t even find my bike" There is no way of knowing if Lance Armstrong thought that he was on the Moon while he was high ... And, if you ever watched the Muppet Show with Louis Armstrong, you would have immediately realized that he and Kermit had a lot in common. But what Neil Armstrong did, when he set foot on the moon, was being the first person in history ever to step on a planetary body other than Earth ....
