Aus medizinischer Sicht gilt Armstrong als geheilt, aber der Krebs lässt ihn nicht los. Er ist das Hauptthema auch dieses zweiten Teils seiner Autobiografie -- aber nicht in der Rolle eines Feindes, den man unter großen Qualen besiegt hat, sondern eher als Geschenk. So paradox es klingt, rückblickend sagt Armstrong, der Krebs sei das Beste, was ihm im Leben passiert sei, und dass er ohne ihn auch niemals die Tour de France gewonnen hätte.

Von den allermeisten Promi-Biografien unterscheidet sich diese hier eindeutig: Zum einen ist sie sehr gut geschrieben (sicher das Verdienst von Journalistin und Koautorin Sally Jenkins). Andererseits hat dieser Mann wirklich etwas zu erzählen. Und zwar zusätzlich zu seinen Tour de France-Berichten, deren intime Details jeden Radsportfan interessieren werden. Eine Botschaft, eine Lebensphilosophie wird uns hier näher gebracht. Aber in keiner Zeile möchte Armstrong sie dem Leser aufdrängen. Er sagt nur immer wieder: Schaut her, das ist mir widerfahren und so hat es mich verändert. Als Helden sieht er sich nicht, auch wenn aus solchem Stoff natürlich unsere medialen Heroen gemacht werden: todkrank und ein paar Jahre später Dominator des Profiradsports.

Das Sportidol präsentiert sich in Jede Sekunde zählt auch als "ganz gewöhnlicher Bursche", dem im Schatten des Erfolges fast seine Ehe kaputt geht, der gar nicht so cool und kontrolliert ist, wie er in der Öffentlichkeit und vor allem im Fahrradsattel wirkt. Der Leser hat tatsächlich den Eindruck, einiges über den Menschen Lance Armstrong zu erfahren -- und das ist schließlich neben dem Unterhaltungsaspekt, was man sich von einer Autobiografie erhofft. --Christian Stahl

Noting that athletes of all levels focus best when aiming for specific goals at the end of short windows, the authors describe the performance program as consisting of "three specialized weekly training programs that build on your current fitness level" followed by a week of "recovery riding between each program." They provide an easy-to-administer fitness-level self-test in the form of a three-mile time trial (beginner, intermediate, or advanced), and they then define the key operative terms that make up the bulk of the actual training, including Tempo, HighSpin, PowerIntervals, Sprints, and Training Zone. A brief section of workbook-style pages provides readers with a user-friendly outline for the entire seven weeks.

Here is week 3 for an intermediate rider:

<ul><li>Monday: day off. <li>Tuesday: 1 hour in zone 2 with 20 minutes Tempo on flat terrain. <li>Wednesday: 30 minutes in zone 1; recovery ride. <li>Thursday: 1 hour in zone 2 with 15 minutes Tempo on flat terrain. <li>Friday: 45 minutes in zone 2 with 10 minutes HighSpin on flat terrain. <li>Saturday: 1 hour in zone 2 with 15 minutes Tempo on flat terrain. <li>Sunday: 1.5 hours in zone 2 with 30 minutes on hilly terrain.

Though clearly the focus, the performance program itself makes up less than a third of the book. Other subjects covered include cycling equipment, essential maintenance and repair, riding in bad weather, road hazards, mental toughness, and the pros' eating habits both on and off the bike, to name just a few. What the book is not is the story of Lance Armstrong's remarkable recovery from testicular cancer (see his autobiography, It's Not About the Bike, for that). Rather, Armstrong and Carmichael have produced a detail-packed training manual, sprinkled with photographs and tales of the racing life, for those who spend a large percentage of their time on two wheels--or dream of it. --Patrick Jennings
