Hey, isn't that ... ? This just in:
According to the Associated Press, Our Boy Lance is ready to ... run.
Run in the New York City Marathon on Nov. 5.
"We were looking at the Chicago Marathon, but a conflict arose with the date, and New York seems to fit our schedule better," Armstrong said. "I've been training some, but I wouldn't call it serious. It's just something to fill a void in my life after I quit competing as a professional cyclist."
This will be OBL's first marathon!
Armstrong rode in the front passenger seat of the Discovery Channel car with team manager Johan Bruyneel Tuesday at the Tour de Georgia. Armstrong was delighted that Discovery Team rider Yaroslav Popovych won the 116.1-mile second stage of the race in 4 hours, 47 minutes, 39 seconds.
"What's so great about the kid is that he absolutely doesn't know the word quit," Armstrong said. "He gave us a real lift today, and you had to be impressed with how our team set him up at the end."
