DISGRACED cyclist Lance Armstrong is ready to speak “candidly” as he prepares to discuss doping allegations against him in a much anticipated interview, reports the Herald Sun.
Armstrong was out for a morning run when he spoke briefly about the interview with American talk show queen Oprah Winfrey.
The man who once ruled cycling was wearing a red jersey with black shorts, sunglasses and a white hat pulled down low.
He would not divulge what he would say in tomorrow’s interview from his home that is to be broadcast on Thursday on the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN).
“I’m calm, I’m at ease and ready to speak candidly,” he said from the side of the road.
“I hope we’ll talk for a couple of hours.”
It has been suggested Armstrong will give a limited confession and apologise.
That would be his first public response to a US Anti-Doping Agency report accusing him of using banned drugs to win the Tour de France.
