He was placed on the 29th position in the competition. He considered it as success as after so many years and medical complications he still took part and succeeded in making some position. He is one of the people who deem that cancer can do no harm to their hopes and determinations. And this is indeed true with his strong will and determination Armstrong all difficulties even he overcome the worst of all i.e. cancer as well. Olympic Training Center also helped him in supporting his noble social cause. They help him in spreading the general awareness of the cancer. We should all support cancer foundations more and more to spread the awareness, support as much as possible whether it is by means of wealth, simply encouragement, organizing any social event or by means of any fund raising scheme. As tomorrow any of our dear one becomes the victim of this dangerous disease.
