Lance Armstrong
Six time Tour de France Winner, Cancer Survivor, Livestrong Founder & Tri-athlete... there's nothing he can't do!
In dynamic fireside chats, Lance Armstrong offers a no-holds-barred, no questions off-limits conversation – inspiring audiences to overcome their greatest obstacles, learn from failure and have the accountability and tenacity to recover from their mistakes. Interviewers delve into topics that include how Lance overcame cancer, his time as a professional cyclist, his experience with the Livestrong charity, his banishment from the sport, and his new activities as podcast host and as a successful advisor and investor in health care start-ups. Lance talks candidly about redemption and reinvention, embracing his past mistakes with an endurance athlete’s tenacious mindset of powering through pain, challenges and adversity.
If scripted by Hollywood, the story would be dismissed as trite melodrama: A deadly disease strikes a promising athlete. Despite desperately thin odds, he manages not only to beat the affliction but also to return to the sport and win its top prize, not once but a record seven times. Unbelievable, except it's true.
But the story doesn't end on the finish line at the Tour de France. His experience made him a part of a cancer community, and motivated him to unleash the same passion and drive he does in bike races to the fight against cancer.
Since he made history in 1999, he has won the tour six more times, and has become one of the most recognizable and admired people of this era.
