  • Keynote Address by the Hon John Fahey Ac President World Anti-Doping Agency to the Anzsla Conference, Melbourne Thursday, 16
    KEYNOTE ADDRESS BY THE HON JOHN FAHEY AC PRESIDENT WORLD ANTI-DOPING AGENCY TO THE ANZSLA CONFERENCE, MELBOURNE THURSDAY, 16 OCTOBER, 2008 Thank you for the opportunity to share some time and some thoughts with you this morning on a subject which has occupied a large slice of my life over the past 12 months. It is not hard to recall the reason why I was attracted to a volunteer position with an International organisation that is based in Montreal, which is almost as far as you can get from my home town of Bowral in NSW. I have always been attracted to the concept of fair play. It is the very essence of sport, if not the most fundamental principle governing our lives. Doping is a triple threat: to athlete safety, to sport integrity, and to greater public health. I am old enough to recall some of the sporting events at international level during the seventies and eighties where the build of athletes, both male and female, did not resemble the stereotype for the event and where all of us had suspicions something was happening that had nothing to do with normal training and strength-building exercises. Many of us in those days believed something was radically wrong. I still vividly recall the comparison in physique between Australia’s Raelene Boyle and the powerful, muscular East German Renate Stecher as they lined up for the start of the 200 metre Final in Munich in 1972. But despite the suspicions and concerns of millions of sports followers around the world, nothing was done by officialdom to address what appeared to be an obvious problem.

  • The Indigenous Marathon Project Run. Sweat. Inspire Parliamentry Inquiry Into the Contribution of Sport
    Submission 049 The Indigenous Marathon Project Run. Sweat. Inspire Parliamentry Inquiry into the contribution of Sport to Indigenous wellbing and mentoring 1 Submission 049 IMP objectives 1. To promote healthy and active lifestyles throughout Indigenous communities nationally and reduce the incidence of Indigenous chronic disease: & 2. To create Indigenous distance running champions and to inspire Indigenous people. Background The Indigenous Marathon Project (IMP) was established in 2009 by World Champion marathon runner and 1983 Australian of the Year, Robert de Castella. IMP annually selects, educates, trains and takes a group of inspirational young Indigenous men and women aged 18-30 to compete in the world’s biggest marathon – the New York City Marathon. IMP is not a sports program. IMP is a social change program that uses the simple act of running as a vehicle to promote the benefits of active and healthy lifestyles and change lives. The group of men and women are similar to rocks in a pond, with their ripple effect continuing to inspire local family and community members as well as thousands of Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians nationally. The Project highlights the incredible natural talent that exists within the Australian Indigenous population, with the hope to one day unearth an Indigenous long-distance running champion to take on the African dominance. The core running squad push their physical and mental boundaries to beyond what they ever thought they were capable of, and after crossing the finish line of the world’s biggest marathon, they know they can achieve anything. These runners are trained to become healthy lifestyle leaders by completing a Certificate IV in Health and Leisure, with a focus on Indigenous healthy lifestyle.

You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.
