Lance Armstrong Is DONE Talking About Cheating Allegations

Ever since he won his first Tour de France, people have been whispering about Lance Armstrong's possible blood doping.

That's where athletes remove some of their red blood cells, put them on ice, wait until new ones grow then inject the extra blood cells back into themselves right before a race.

What that does is allow them to move more oxygen more efficiently so they can go harder for longer.

Lance said he's given over 500 samples to prove he's never blood doped, saying:

Lance Armstrong Campaigning For Cigarette Tax Boost To Raise Money For Cancer

We LOVE this idea!

Lance Armstrong is asking California voters to approve Proposition 29 in June, which will raise the packs of cigarettes sold in the state by just $1 as a means to raise money for cancer research!

Since cigarettes CAUSE cancer, why not give a little bit back toward curing the disease too? If it was up to us, we'd eliminate

Lance Armstrong Doping Inquiry Closed! Charges Dropped!

Justice at last!

This afternoon, federal prosecutors closed their investigation of Lance Armstrong's alleged use of performance-enhancing drugs after two-years of trying to pin something on him. They were convinced he and his cycling teammates were competing while under a "doping program," but all inquiries into the claims came back negative.

And you know what? Lance knew they would never find anything one him, which is why he steadfastly denied every allegation thrown at him. Now, he has the satisfaction of knowing he proved them all right and his unparalleled career remains untarnished.

Congrats, Lance! You remain the world's greatest cyclist! Ride on!

Lance Armstrong Talks Triathlon While Promoting LIVESTRONG Fitness Equipment

Lance Armstrong may be living stronger than ever before!

The 7-time Tour de France winner was in Toronto, Canada on Wednesday to promote his LIVESTRONG Fitness Equipment and shared he was in the middle of training for his third triathlon since retiring.

Armstrong finished 5th in his first triathlon in 22 years after hopping off professional cycling circuit, then 23rd at the World XTERRA Championships in Maui. Talking about his most recent quest, he told sources:

“I don’t know if I would say I’m preparing for another career, but I’m definitely preparing for a triathlon.”

While in town, the athlete — who was diagnosed with testicular cancer in 1996 — talked to other sources about how fighting and beating the disease has changed him, explaining:

"It certainly changed me as a person, it changed me as a parent, as a friend. You don't take anything for granted, especially those first couple of years. Every sunset becomes the best sunset you've ever seen, every traffic jam is absolutely nothing."

On the flip side, he admits that those feelings don't necessarily last forever, continuing:

"But as you get 10, 15 years down the road, I have to admit… that impatience comes back… you start to lose that crystal clear perspective you used to have in those first years after, when you have no idea what's going to happen and you're just waiting to know, ‘Am I going to be given life back?'"

Completely understandable! It's nice to get such a unique and honest perspective on the subject matter though.
