Summary and reflection

                             Summary

The olympic Race Walker Alex Shwazer was banned from the London Olympic Games due to his use of performance enhancers, Alex Shwazer had previously recieved the gold medal for the 50km race walking competition. The italian held a very emotional press conference stating he was glad to have been caught utilizing illegal substances. Alex Shwazers medals were taken from him, thus leaving him with a barren landscape in which no success manifests itself.

                            Reflection

I am outraged by the large number of atheletes that have used illegal substances. I believe atheletes use illegal substance due to their lack of ability or their lack of confidence. My opinion upon every form of cheating is "a person who cheats either lacks the ability or confidence and therefore expresses incapability and poor judgment." Why would he use illegal substances, all a person must do is train intensly and better themselves, an individual can nevre justify cheating, but he can exhibit incapability. Why would any individual consider such a deplorable action, i am horrified that the atheletes who utilize performance enhancers are atheletes who are idolized.
