- Summary
-
"Doping perverts the meaning and core values of sport, undermines the legitimacy of competition and sends messages to our children that winning at any cost is the highest value. The practice of doping mocks the Olympic Creed: 'The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle.'" ...
