The star of Gothenburg admits doping – Göteborgs-Posten

The predecessor Andreas Gustafsson, who competes for Gothenburgian GK stage, has admitted that he doped himself.

– Sure, this is a shock to us says the competition committee chairman Birger Field.

Andreas Gustafsson fills 34 years and is the son of Bo Gustafsson, who won Olympic Silver in 1984. Last year, improved his results significantly and he was among other things, just one second from the world record of an English mile. As he explained in a GP interview that the Declaration was a change in technique and strength training.

But last week it was revealed that Gustafsson caught in a doping control, and on Monday he heard via e-mail to the Pedestrian and wanders the union competition committee.

– Currently, he does not say much, but he does not deny that he at that time had illicit drugs in the body, says Birger Field.

will therefore not be any b-test?

– No, it is done only if the active requests, and it has not done Andreas. So it honors him that he did not say anything but the truth.

The recognition, that is. And a heavy blow to Swedish sport – and especially for walking

sport, which already is both questioned and marginalized.

– Sure, it came as a shock for us and it affects us. But there is some same pattern as most other doping cases in Sweden in the sense that the active long residence in other countries and had daily contact with Swedish sport, says Birger Field.

He refers to Andreas ago many years living and studying in the United States. There, he is also right now, and according to Field, it is unlikely that he will return shortly. Or that he ever return to the sport.

– It’s likely that he quit. I do not know how long the suspension will be, but I would think that he made his. It is very difficult in Sweden to come back after these things, says Field.

Gustafsson was before unveiling a Swedish medal hope for the Olympics in Rio next year.
