6. IF I’AM A PROFESSIONAL
ATHLETE…
I would use drugs to win all competitions, have a lot of
money and to perform at high levels, without anyone
knowing about it.
I think if I always use drugs I always will win and I will
become an famous athlete and be recognized for everyone.
I had make sure first no one knew about it.
If the other people would use drugs I wouldn't tell anything
because I used, too but if they win I would tell it because I
always want to win and be the best.
7. REFORM OF ATHLETICS
Doping is destroying some sports and is bad for the health
of athletes.
They have to control more people from athletics to
not consume these substances.
They have to disqualify the people who play unfaily.
People who use drugs must stop taking drugs and
eat healthier foods.
People who have already taken drugs may not
participate in a championship never.
People who have taken drugs can’t have any medals and
they won’t be recognized.
