Winning his 4th Tour de France (consecutive) this man is an inspiration to me whenever I think of him. At CNN.com they have a great story on him, saying in this one excerpt,
"As he went up to the podium for the victory ceremony, Armstrong waved to the crowd, which roared its approval back at the rider who lives in Europe much of the year and often does interviews in French. He smiled broadly when he was presented with a bouquet of yellow flowers that matched his jersey. Armstrong stood with his cap pressed against his heart as the Star Spangled Banner played.
The cyclist from Austin, Texas, has been a special inspiration to many people -- not just sports fans -- because of his struggle with testicular cancer, which spread to his lungs and brain and nearly killed him six years ago. His Lance Armstrong Foundation raises money for cancer survivors. "
