Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong admitted to taking performance enhancing drugs in an interview with Oprah Winfrey on Monday.    Anonymous sources who were in the room while the interview was being taped say that Armstrong made the admission during a taping of an interview to be aired Thursday.

 

Armstrong has spent more than a decade denying that he doped to win the Tour de France seven times. 

   Armstrong was stripped of his titles and banned from the sport for life last year after the U.S. Anti-Doping agency issued a detailed report accusing him of leading a sophisticated and brazen drug program on his U.S. Postal Service teams that included steroids, blood boosters and a range of performance-enhancing drugs.
