Lance Armstrong, who is considered one of the best cyclists ever, was born in Texas, USA, on 8 Sept and brought up only by his mother. Although at the age of twelve he joined a swimming team, some years later when he won a triathlon he found out the discipline in which he actually highlighted. That was racing cycling.
In his thirties he won seven consecutive times the Tour de France, so that was the fact that gave him all his fame. Moreover, he became more popular for being able to achieve all that after having survived a cancer. That is the reason that led him to set up a cancer charity. Lance Armstrong Foundation, which has been raised up to $50 million.
Nowadays, Armstrong lives in Texas and Girona, as he is retired from professional cycling. What I most admired about him is his self-improvement aptitude, as well as his capacity for marking real all his desires and for being able to achieve his goals.
