The former American female cyclist Tammy Thomas applied the steroid THG. As a result, she was sentenced to lifetime suspension.
Tammy Thomas wanted to participate in the 2004 Olympic Games. Thus, she decided to administer steroids to promote her performance and make her dreams related to the Olympic Games real. But since she was caught applying forbidden drugs, she was not permitted to compete at the Olympics.
The cyclist was charged with lying to the Grand Jury. She turned out to be targeted during the BALCO investigation. It was claimed that the cyclist didn’t say truth about usage of steroids and getting of THG. While she was accused of lying to the Grand Jury, she presented some arguments in order to defend herself against the accusations.
Tammy Thomas affirmed that she hadn’t used any prohibited drug. In fact, she said truth. At that time THG was not written on the list of prohibited drugs. It was claimed to be just an unapproved new medicine. THG was introduced by the chemist Patrick Arnold.
While the BALCO foundation sold THG to numerous sportspersons, it was claimed that Tammy Thomas obtained this product from Patrick Arnold. But the female cyclist denied this affirmation. Ultimately, she said that Patrick Arnold’s former girlfriend supplied her with THG.
All arguments of Tammy Thomas were not accepted. She was sentenced to a home detection of 6 months and probation of five years.
The American cyclist repented totally. She admitted that she acted wrongly. Thus, she decided to alter her life. Being a religious person, Tammy Thomas believes that God has a plan linked with her life. She noticed that she would do anything in order to live so, as God whishes. She established a fitness center and decided to help others to keep their health.
