Chasing records doesn't keep me on my bike. Happiness does.

The riskiest thing you can do is get greedy.

I am just coming into my best years. This year I did new things; stretching and abdominal work.

Marathons are hard because of the physical pain, the pounding on the muscles, joints, tendons.

My career is going to be played out year by year. Will I be here in 2004? I don't know. The record won't keep me here. Happiness will.

I believe that the mind powers the body, and once the mind says we want to do it, then the body will follow.

I spent a long time trying to build up an organisation [the Lance Armstrong Foundation that changed its name to Livestrong after his confession] to help a lot of people.
