Seven-time Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong.
Kapalua, Hawaii – Lance Armstrong doesn't expect to win the XTERRA World Championship off-road triathlon on Sunday, and that is just fine with him.
The seven-time Tour de France winner is entered in the event in Hawaii, just a month after competing in his first off-road triathlon in 22 years, the XTERRA USA Championship in Utah. He finished fifth in that race, about five minutes behind the winner.
After not training seriously for the Utah event, he has put in more work since then to be ready for the race Sunday on the island of Maui.
Armstrong is competing against a professional field of 75 racers that includes 2008 Olympic triathlon gold medalist Jan Frodeno of Germany.
He knows it would be a long shot for him to win, but he didn't completely rule himself out. – Sapa-AP
