From the Lodi News-Sentinel comes an interview with Rodger Robinson, a star in wheelchair racing. Robinson completed the Boston Marathon in the past, and will compete again this year. He participated in an interview which featured this interesting question:
Q: Do you suspect any wheelchair racers are on steroids?
A: I don't really know. Some pretty fast guys out there are pretty big. But some supplements will do that.
It could be a possibility. I'm sure some of it is going on. There seems to be some in all sports, especially sports of endurance.
This interview question was interesting in several aspects.
The use of anabolic and anabolic steroid appears to be so pervasive that journalists feel compelled to ask every athlete the steroid question. Second, it is almost (we say almost) startling that a top competitor in wheelchair racing thinks there may be some drug-cheating going on in that sport.
Last year, we documented a wheelchair tennis player who was unfairly suspended for a positive test last year. Thus, even wheelchair sports need to implement anti-doping rules.
Just how pervasive is drug-cheating these days? Apparently very.
Very happy to see your article,I was searching for this information but there are very limited resources.I also want to introduce you to see my website. I believe that you will like it.
