My doctor could not tell me if this medicine was banned. He left the decision to take the medicine or not to me At that point in my athletic career, I needed a pharmaceutical treatment, I needed to pass my drug test and I needed help from my doctor on how to accomplish both. I don\u2019t want our athletes to also find themselves in that situation.&#8221;<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Smith hopes that anti-doping authorities will be able to stay on top of most current science in order to thwart future doping violations, and she condemns efforts to undermine the doping system, such as the recently-discovered state-sponsored doping program in Russia.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">&#8220;This situation not only affects our elite athletes, it erodes the confidence of all our athletes. How can we tell our young athletes to believe that sport represents the best of society \u2013 work hard, be dedicated and committed, and you will succeed \u2013if we allow people to compete and win through cheating and don\u2019t hold them, and their governing federations, responsible?&#8221;<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr.\u00a0Tobie Smith, a former U.S. National Team member and top open water swimmer, has been appointed to serve on the USADA Board of Directors, Swimming World has learned.
