Lance ArmstrongWhen it comes to thriving in the face of adversity, few stories are more inspiring than that of Lance Armstrong. In 1996 the cyclist was diagnosed with testicular cancer, which had already spread to his lungs, abdomen and brain, and told he had less than 40 per cent chance of survival. However, Lance not only survived, he thoroughly refused to be beaten by his illness. Following surgery and chemotherapy, Lance was back to training by January 1998, going on to win the Tour de France a record seven consecutive times.
