When you get a leathel diesease you think ur life is over. But Lance is made up of different meterial and he told his story of coming back not only to mainstream life but also to worldclass cycling. though sometimes you may feel it larger than life but it is true.
Lance is a symbol of self confidence and dedication which is beautifully narrated by him. myself is a long disance runner and I had got a lot of motivation from the book. it doesn’t show only the tough side of lance but also the soft side where he is a husbend and father. The book ends in Sydney olympics 2000 where lance won 3rd place. after it, he has won 5 more tour de france on a row and has written another book named "every second counts".I suggest this book as a must read. even if you are not interested in cycling and other sports, you will find yourself respecting all from of sports
