Lance Armstrong has displayed his dedication and affinity towards cycling every single time. He dreamt of becoming a successful cyclist since the age of 16. Armstrong’s performances on the racing track have always astonished fans.

Post-retirement, the athlete admitted he used performance-enhancing drugs throughout his career. It stripped him of his seven consecutive Tour de France titles and faced lawsuits too.

The cyclist has an eagerness to compete and prove his talent. It’ll be interesting to know what keeps up with this eagerness after he retired.

Lance Armstrong’s competitive form

The retired road racing cyclist never stepped back when it came to competing. Armstrong’s amazing accolade proves his competitiveness and showcases his talent.

In a recent interview, the 50-year-old revealed how he handles his “competitive itch” after ending his sports career. Considering the age factor, Armstrong said that his body won’t keep pace with his competitive mind. Although he desires to compete with age, it becomes nearly impossible for one to be at their best always.

 “Not much, actually. It wasn’t like a light bulb moment, but I kind of realized, it just felt like time, at 50 years old,” said the legendary cyclist, Armstrong.

“My brain is too competitive. The body won’t keep up with the desire. Racing against a 21-year-old who trains like a monk, you just have no chance”
