Athletic doping: MSU athletes say it’s not worth it
|
On Dec. 5, the International Olympics Committee ruled that Russia will be suspended from the 2018 Winter Olympic Games because of doping. The country had two scandals back in the 2014 and 2016 Olympic Games, and now they are paying the price for their previous actions. Doping is the act of illegally using drugs or other substances in order to enhance athletic performance. Performance enhancing drugs have long been a problem in sports and local athletes here at Michigan State say the cheat isn’t worth the risk.
