Why do people in the Olympics take drugs?
 * They want to take them because they just want to look good and stand out in the crowd. They also do it all for the medals for their country's and to make everyone proud! I think that the drug cheats are people who don't even think about the achievement of getting into the Olympics and i find that really sad because it is very hard even to get into the Olympics. I also think that the drug cheats are sick in the head because they don't even say thank you to even get the medal that they didn't even earn. One last thing I think about the people who take drugs are people who get little kids to look up to them but that is sad because they didn't even train enough to win they just take drugs that will make you have abilities that you never thought you'd be able to have!!! **
 * The people who take the drugs are the people who don't care about doing it them selves all they want is the fame and the fortune in the medal but in my opinion most of the drug cheats probably sell their medals straight away,If they don't get found out. **

How do Drugs effect an athlete?
 * Positive: It effects them by strengthening thier muscles so then it will improve their peformance so they can win! **
 * Negetive: If it is Steroids It can change the look for example if your a girl/ladie it will change your facial looks to into a mannish look. It can also effect them in later life because the drugs will soon spread through the stomach and will eventually kill them. **

Why do drug cheats keep the medal to themselves when they have to give it back?
 * In my opinion they don't give the medal back because they are just too scared to face the person to give the medal back, as they don't know what their reaction is going to be. They also don 't give it back because they could get fined or in jail for drug cheating and stealing. Another thing is they have wanted to beat a certain athlete so they know that if they take the drugs it will make them stronger and better than the athlete they want to beat. **

When did drug testing start?
 * The 1968 Summer Games in Mexico City. **

What happens when someone is caught taking drugs?
 * If an athlete gets caught with steroids or other banned Drugs that improve the peformancce, he/she would get disqualified from whatever they were taking part in, Their medals to be taken away from them and in some cases for them to be arrested. **

 * The sport that is most hardest to detect drugs in is Cycling! **

 * The most common method of testing a drug cheat is using a urine sample. An athlete at the Olympics is required to give two urine samples and then they will both be tested and if they both come out all clear they are obvious they are a negative for drugs and then they are free to go but if they are positive the athletes have to give the medal back and then have to apologize! **
