Lance Armstrong is an American professional road racing cyclist who is best known for winning the Tour de France a record seven consecutive times, after having survived testicular cancer. He is also the founder and chairman of the Lance Armstrong Foundation for cancer research and support. He rides for UCI ProTour team Team RadioShack.

The Estimated Net Worth of Lance Armstrong is Around US $ 125 Million.

He was raised by his mother, Linda Moonyham. His father Eddie Charles Gunderson left him and his mother when Lance was two. Lance found his peace in sports. He began swimming and running at the tender age of ten. By thirteen he was already competing in cycling and triathlons. Three years later Armstrong would become a professional tri-athlete. In both 1989 and 1990 he would become the national sprint-course triathlon champion.

Eventually, Armstrong would focus more on cycling. In his senior year of high school he was invited to Colorado Springs, Colorado to train with U.S. Olympic development team. 1989 proved to be a good year for him when he placed 11th in the World Champion road race (with the best American time since 1976), was named the U.S. national amateur champion, and beat out many professional cyclists in two high profile races.
