Lance Armstrong gave up the fight against the USADA regarding his accusation of doping with regard to his 7 Tour de France victories.
Whether this alarms you or not as far as his innocence or guilt is completely up to you. Many people have asked me about the LiveSTRONG bracelet I wear every day. "Will you take it off?".
"Heck no", I say. To me Lance's legacy is his work to support cancer survivors, not his Tour victories. Having the opportunity to work with and love cancer survivors every day is an honor and because of the Lance Armstrong Foundation and the Tampa YMCA more than 500 survivors from the age of 3 to 93 are enjoying free YMCA memberships with trained cancer wellness coaches walking them through every aspect of wellness.
I will take my bracelet off when cancer is cured.
If you are a survivor, please come to the Y and join us. We will be honored to serve you, teach you and support you. If you know a survivor, please pass on the opportunity.
