  • El Periódico
    EL PERIÓDICO Lydia Valentín: "Sabía que competía con rivales que no iban limpias" La bronce olímpica de halterofilia en Rio 2016 recuperará también medallas de Pekín 2008 y Londres 2012 JORDI COTRINA Lydia Valentín posa este viernes en Barcelona. JOAN CARLES ARMENGOL / BARCELONA VIERNES, 21 DE OCTUBRE DEL 2016 - 18:01 CEST Lydia Valentín está en Barcelona. Esta sábado se pone delante de 300 personas en una clase magistral de fitness, patrocinada porBridgestone, bajo el lema 'Persigue tu sueño, supera los obstáculos', que viene como anillo al dedo a una deportista que ha llegado a lo más alto en su modalidad, la halterofilia, tras superar multitud de piedras en el camino y vicisitudes de lo más pintorescas. La leonesa de Camponaraya, pequeño pueblo cercano aPonferrada (León) donde nació hace 31 años, es la única deportista que en un mes ha sido medallista olímpica tres veces… en tres Juegos distintos. A principios de agosto se enteró de que el podio de su categoría (75 kilos) de Londres 2012 se había caído entero al reanalizarse las muestras antidopaje, lo que le daba la victoria; el día 12 se colgó el bronce en Río 2016, y pocos días después de regresar a casa otra revisión de Pekín 2008 la llevó del quinto al segundo puesto. Oro, bronce y plata en un mes. "Voy a reclamar las medallas y los premios del 2008 y el 2012 porque es justo y estoy en mi derecho" -¡Qué montón de sensaciones debió sentir durante ese mes, ¿no?!Muchísimas. Fue la mezcla de muchos sentimientos. Primero sentí una alegría inmensa, pero después piensas: ¡Cómo me han podido fastidiar tanto! ¡Cómo es posible que se permita esto! Estamos hablando de deporte.

The challenge of combating doping, corruption, match fixing and abuse were discussed by athletes, coaches and administrators as well as leaders of national government agencies. IOC President Thomas Bach wants the Forum to bring people from all walks of life together to express a wide range of views as part of the Olympic Agenda 2020, the strategic roadmap for the future of the Olympic Movement. Emphasising the Forum’s open approach, the battle to combat doping in sport brought together the World Anti-Doping Agency’s director of intelligence and investigations Gunter Younger alongside Benjamin Cohen, Director General of the newly created International Testing Agency (ITA), with the British cyclist David Millar, who was banned for two years in 2004 after admitting taking banned performance-enhancing drugs before becoming a prominent anti-doping campaigner. 1,600 delegates from all walks of life are attending the forum, which takes place in the Argentine capital ahead of the 3rd Summer Youth Olympic Games.

  • Iaaf Comments on Independent Commission's Report #1
    IAAF COMMENTS ON INDEPENDENT COMMISSION'S REPORT #1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On 9 November 2015, the Independent Commission issued a report (the IC Report) that set out evidence of widespread doping by Russian athletes, but also suggested that 'particular highly placed members and officials of IAAF' may have taken bribes to delay the bringing of anti-doping charges against certain athletes in 2012. On that basis, the Independent Commission suggested that it had 'identified systemic failures within the IAAF and Russia that prevent or diminish the possibility of an effective anti-doping program …'. These allegations of corruption by individuals formerly associated with the IAAF are truly abhorrent, and the IAAF cannot, and does not, seek to avoid or downplay them in any way. The IAAF wishes to salute the courage of the whistle-blowers (including its own staff members) who have helped to expose the wrongdoing described in the IC Report. It will do everything in its power to punish the wrongdoers and to reform its own systems to make sure that no one can ever again interfere improperly with its anti-doping procedures. However, the IAAF believes it is also important to point out that: ñ No doping case has been covered up by the IAAF. All cases that should have been pursued were pursued and all cases that should have been sanctioned were sanctioned in accordance with IAAF Rules and the World Anti-Doping Code. ñ The IAAF is aware of four cases where (as the Independent Commission suggests) there were unexplained and suspicious delays in the prescribed results management process.

I didn't see it. Of course, I am happy with the results. I like to fight and win. Want to win the "Tour de Ski". Will do anything for that. – I believe you have a suspicion, given all the checks? Maybe it was the passports of blood or because of something else. But I don't feel any pressure from anti-doping authorities. – Can you say clean? – Yes, you can. – Is it possible to be a Russian, to win and not to fall under suspicion? I don't like such questions. Hate to hear that if you speak Russian and well, it is likely that under doping. I don't like that people think and ask such questions. My friends who stayed at home, watching the race on TV, give me strength. I speak for them. – If they send you messages? – Yes, they wish me good luck. They are happy when I win.

  • The Global Governance of Anti-Doping: a View from Two Whistleblowers
    The Global Governance of Anti-Doping: A View from Two Whistleblowers Stepanova, Yulia; Stepanov, Vitaly and Harris, Spencer John University of Colorado, United States of America [email protected] Aim and Background The Russian Doping Scandal has received considerable public attention ever since the Sundance showing and subsequent Netflix broadcast of Icarus in August, 2017. Less prominently, investigative journalists such as Nick Harris and Hajo Seppelt had reported on systemic doping in Russia in July 2013 and December 2014, respectively. The Russian case is both remarkable and shocking—remarkable in the degree to which doping was an embedded and state sanctioned practice to support the enhancement of athletic performance, and shocking in the initial unwillingness or inability of anti-doping agencies to properly investigate the case. More recently, the WADA commissioned independent examinations (the Independent Commission Report and the Independent Person Report); the IOC set up and concluded disciplinary commissions (The Schimd and Oswald Commissions), ultimately barring the Russian team from the 2018 Winter Olympic Games; and, on February 1, 2018, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) upheld the appeals of twenty-eight Russian athletes. Despite this latter action, the insights concerning the mis-steps and governance failure of WADA are other structures involved in global anti-doping governance appear to have been buried or 'painted over' by recent developments and an overarching concern for impression management and the desire to somehow preserve the much-maligned notion of Olympism (Sugden & Tomlinson, 2012 and many others) and the integrity of the Olympic sport system. Research Design At the centre of this case are a small number of whistle-blowers that have shared stories, recorded evidence and made available data that have revealed the true scale and scope of the Russian doping program.
