Xa uJessie Diggins ephumelele iwonga lokuqala lehlabathi kwimbali yase-US yokutyibiliza ekhephini ngoLwesibini, uye waqaphela ukuba zonke iingcali zeparafini zaseMelika zazigxalathelana ukuya kumvuyisa. Ayemaninzi amazwi kangangokuba akazange awazi nelinye kuwo.
“Ndikhumbula ngaxa lithile bendicinga ukuba andimazi nokuba ngubani,” utshilo uDeakins kumsasazi waseNorway i-NRK, emva koko wantywizisa iinyembezi zovuyo. “Bayaphambana, yimvakalelo emnandi. Xa ukwimeko entle ngokwenene, kusebuhlungu, kodwa uziva ngathi ungazityhala kakhulu.”
Kwisimbo sakhe sokutyikitya, uDeakins uphumelele i-10K yeHlabathi ye-Around Freestyle Championship ngo-23:40 ePlanica, eSlovenia. Ugqibe imizuzwana eli-14 phambi kukaFrida Karlsson waseSweden. Omnye waseSweden, u-Ebba Andersson, uphumelele imbasa yobhedu kugqatso lwemizuzwana engama-30 eyedwa.
UDeakins wayeneentsuku ezimbini emva kwe-skier yaseNorway kunye neSweden kwi-sprint yeqela, apho waphumelela ubhedu kunye noJulia Kern, owaqala i-10km ngomzuzu emva kukaCarlsen, oqala ngo-2021. Intshatsheli yehlabathi yokugqibela yonyaka iphumelele indondo yesilivere.
Ngexesha lemizuzu emine yokuqala, uDeakins wayephambi kweCarlsen ngemizuzwana emithathu. IDeakins igcine umkhondo ofanayo kumgama oziikhilomitha ezisi-7.7, iwugcina uqinile umdyarho. Kodwa kwimizuzu emithandathu yokugqibela, wawisa isando sakhe watyibilika waya entanjeni ngaphandle kokulibazisa, wawa ekhephini ecaleni kukaKarlsson, ekhefuzela.
“Andikhange ndiyeke ukulila emva kogqatso,” utshilo uDeakins, onyuke i-1,263 yeemitha kugqatso lweemayile ezi-6.25, malunga nomphakamo we-Empire State Building. “Ndacinga, ‘Andikwazi nokuyonwabela le nto kuba andiboni nokubona. Ndikhalile. Kodwa ikhethekile.”
Abatyibilizi baseMelika baphumelele iimbasa ezili-13 zeOlimpiki okanye ubuNtshatsheli beHlabathi ukusukela ngo-1976, kodwa ngoLwesibini yayiyeyokuqala igolide.
UDeakins sele ebambe irekhodi lase-US kwiimbasa ezininzi ze-Olimpiki kwi-skiing enqumla ilizwe (enye yombala ngamnye), iimbasa zoBuntshatsheli beHlabathi (ngoku zintandathu ngoku), kunye nezihloko zeNdebe yeHlabathi (14).
“Kumnandi ukuba nenkawu emqolo, nakwimbaleki efana noJesse,” umqeqeshi waseMelika uMat Whitcomb uxelele i-NRK. “Usenokungakwazi ukukuxelela zonke iinkcukacha ngaye. Angakuxelela nje ukuba umnika izifundo ezinje kwaye uyazi ukuba noko uzakuba nalo umzobo. Ngokwenene olu lolona phawu lubalaseleyo lukaYese. nokubandezeleka.”
I-Deakins ichaza iinyembezi kumzamo weqela le-waxers, abaqeqeshi, abanyangi bomzimba, i-nutrist kunye nee-massage therapists. Kukwangenxa yokuba ebengekho ekhaya lonke ixesha lonyaka, kwaye ubukhulu becala ebekude nomyeni wakhe omtsha.
UDeakins walibiza ngokuba lixesha lamahla-ndinyuka. NgoDisemba, walinganisa kwaye waphula irekhodi leNdebe yeHlabathi yaseMelika ebekwe ngumdlali weqela le-Olympian uKikkan Randall.
Kodwa phambi kokuqala kweNdebe yeHlabathi, abadlali beqela bavuka ngoNovemba bamfumana ezisongile kwigumbi lokuhlambela. UDeakins ukholelwa ukuba wosulelwa yintsholongwane yomkhuhlane weeyure ezingama-24 emva kokuya eYurophu.
Emva koko kwiTour de France, eyiTour de France, njengeTour de France, ebanjwa ngoBusuku bangaphambi koNyaka oMtsha, wagqiba ngomhla wama-40, wama-30 nowama-40. Uye wacetyiswa ngamajelo eendaba aseScandinavia ukuba arhoxe kwitumente ayiphumeleleyo ngo-2021.
UDiggins uqhubekile nogqatso, ebeka elona xesha likhawulezayo lokuleqa phambi kokuba agqibe indawo yesihlanu kwinqanaba lokugqibela elinzima, umgama we-10km enyuka iSemis Alps yase-Italiya.
“Ndiyazazi ukuba ndikwimeko entle, ngakumbi [kukuxhatshazwa],” utshilo uDeakins ngoLwesibini. “Kodwa xa sithetha inyani, siye sasokola nge-ski wax, kufuneka ube nayo yonke into ukuze ukhuphisane kugqatso. Yiyo loo nto xa siphumelela, siphumelela njengeqela.”
UDeakins ugqibe emagqabini kathathu kwimidyarho yakhe yokugqibela emihlanu phambi koBuntshatsheli beHlabathi kwaye emva koko waba nomtsi owomeleleyo kumbaleko weqela langeCawe.
Emva koko uye wangena kwimbali, enethemba lokunceda iQela lase-USA liphumelele imbasa yalo yokuqala ye-relay ngoLwesine. UDeakins ulilungu leqela lase-USA kwaye uphumelele indawo yesine okanye yesihlanu kuKhuphiswano lweHlabathi ngalunye kwezihlanu zokugqibela.
"Zonke iziqwenga ziyadibana-umzimba wakho, ingqondo yakho, isantya sakho, ubuchule bakho, ukutyibilika kwakho kunye nemozulu," utshilo. “Ikhethekile.”
Uneminyaka elishumi elinesithandathu ubudala waseKhanada uMcIntosh wophule irekhodi lakhe lehlabathi labancinci ngoLwesine ngokuphumelela ibhabhathane le-200m kumsitho wePro Series Swimming eFort Lauderdale, eFlorida.
UMcIntosh, ophumelele izihloko kwi-200m sweep kunye ne-400m yomntu ngamnye kwi-World Championships ngoJuni ophelileyo, wachukumisa udonga ngo-2: 5.05.
KuKhuphiswano lweHlabathi eBudapest, ulahle irekhodi lakhe lehlabathi labancinci nge-15% kwaye ngoku ungoyena mbaleki we-11 okhawulezayo kulo naluphi na udidi lobudala.
UMcIntosh, owayeqeqeshelwa eSarasota, wayenokhuphiswano oluthembisayo noKatie Ledecky kwi-400-metres freestyle, akukho namnye kubo owaqubha ngoLwesine.
ULedecky akazange akhuphisane nakuwuphi na umnyhadala wakhe omkhulu ngoLwesine, kodwa uphume kwindawo yesibini kumdyarho weemitha ezili-100 kwaye akazange akhuphisane kukhuphiswano lobuntshatsheli olukhulu.
U-Abby Weitzeil uphumelele ngexesha le-53.38, isiqalo esichukumisayo sesizini kwitumente enzulu yaseMelika. U-Weizeil, intshatsheli yoLwango lwe-Olimpiki yowama-2020 kumgama ongama-50m nakwi-100m ekhululekileyo, ubethe abo bakhuphisana nabo, kuquka abane abaphambili, kuLwango lweOlimpiki lwangoLwesine.
Kwakhona ubuya kwiqela eliphose iNdebe yeHlabathi kunyaka ophelileyo. UWeitzeil ebekwindawo yesixhenxe kulo nyaka uphelileyo, kodwa ngoLwesine uza kuba kwindawo yesibini kukhetho luka-2022 emva kwembasa yobhedu yehlabathi uTorrey Haske, ongakhuphiyo eFort Lauderdale.
KwangoLwesine, uNick Fink ubethe uMichael Andrew ngepesenti enye kumdlalo we-100m webreaststroke phakathi kwabadlali ababini abaphambili baseMelika kulo nyaka uphelileyo. Ixesha likaFunk ibiyi 59.97 seconds.
Imbasa yegolide yeOlimpiki, u-Ahmed Hafnaoui waseTunisia uphumelele i-400m ekhululekileyo, edityaniswe nembasa ye-Olimpiki yobhedu uKieran Smith (owesithathu) kunye nentshatsheli ye-Olimpiki ye-800m kunye ne-1500m ye-freestyle uBobby Fincke (wesithandathu).
Iindadi zilungiselela uBuntshatsheli base-US ekupheleni kukaJuni kunye noBuntshatsheli beHlabathi eFukuoka, eJapan ngoJulayi.
Kwimiba entsonkothileyo yemithetho, imimiselo kunye nokutolikwa okulawula inkqubo ye-anti-doping yehlabathi, akukho mntu ubona esi silumkiso: zilumkele iziyobisi zezinja.
Yayiluqwalaselo oluqondakalayo, kodwa lukhokelele kuhambo lophando lweenyanga ezintathu olwathi ekugqibeleni lwakhulula i-Olympian yexesha elihlanu yedoping, ngelixa songeza iinkwenkwezi ezithathwa njengengeyomfuneko.
UKaterina Nash, umkhweli webhayisekile entabeni kunye nomtyibilizi onqumla ilizwe owayemele iRiphabhlikhi yaseCzech kwiiOlimpiki zaseBusika ezimbini kunye neeOlimpiki ezintathu zasehlotyeni, uthintele ukuvalwa kwedoping iminyaka emine. Abasemagunyeni bagqiba kwelokuba xa wayewisa iyeza emqaleni wenja yakhe egulayo, eyaziwa ngokuba nguRuby, loo nto yafika ngolusu lwakhe.
Ngaphandle kokungabikho kwezohlwayo, ukubaleka kukaNash kunye nabasemagunyeni abachasene ne-doping bekusekwingxelo yangoLwesine, imveliso yemithetho ekudala ikho efuna naluphi na ulwaphulo-mthetho lwe-doping - nokuba "uFumana oluHlahloyo olubi" ngokungeyonjongo. .
“Kuyothusa ukucinga ukuba ukuba andizihlambanga izandla kuya kuwonakalisa wonke umsebenzi wam njengembaleki iminyaka engama-30,” uNash, 45, uxelele I-Associated Press. Iindlela ezahlukeneyo zokunyamekela inja yam. Kodwa ekugqibeleni, ndandisebenzisa eli chiza yonke imihla kangangeeveki ezintathu.”
UNash uhlala eCarlifonia kwaye uvavanywe yi-Arhente ye-Anti-Doping yase-US. Iziphumo, ezivele kwiiofisi ze-USADA kwiintsuku ezimbalwa kamva, zazimangalisa. Umchamo kaNash ubonise amanani (0.07 yebhiliyoni yegram ngemililitha) yento ebizwa ngokuba yiCamorelin. Nangona yayingabalulekanga, yayanele ukubangela ukuvuleka okungathandekiyo. Nangona i-capromorelin ingakhankanywanga ngokuthe ngqo kuluhlu lwezinto ezivaliweyo, isawela kudidi "lwezinye" izinto ezivaliweyo ezinxulumene nehomoni yokukhula komntu.
Njengakwiimeko zangaphambili, emva kokugqiba ukuba i-sunscreens ngaphandle kwe-counter-counter ibonise iziphumo ezilungileyo, amalungu eqela lezesayensi lase-USADA aqala ukusebenza.
Okokuqala, bafumanisa ukuba iCamorelin ikhona kwi-Entyce, esetyenziselwa ukunyusa ukutya kwizinja ezigulayo. Emva koko iNzululwazi eyiNtloko yase-USADA uGqr. Matt Fedoruk nabanye baqalisa ukusebenzisa iyeza eluswini lwabo. Kwiintsuku ezimbalwa kamva banika isiphumo esihle. Lo ngumzekelo wamva nje wezinto ezilungileyo kunye neengozi zokulwa ne-doping kunye nezixhobo ezibuthathaka kakhulu zokubona izixa ezincinci zamachiza.
"Ingxaki nge-anti-doping kukuba ubuntununtunu bube buhle kangangokuba ngoku sinobudlelwane phakathi kwe-doping kunye nokuvezwa kwendalo esinokuthi sibe nakho njengabadlali," utshilo uFedoruk.
Imizekelo ephambili yeengxaki ezinokubangelwa ziimvavanyo ezinovakalelo ziimeko ezininzi eziye zayekwa kwiminyaka yakutshanje yeembaleki eziye zavavanya zinethemba emva kokuncamisana okanye ukwabelana ngesondo neqabane elalinento engavumelekanga kwinkqubo yabo.
Kwezinye iimeko, iimbaleki ziye zaginya umkhondo wento evaliweyo ngelixa besitya inyama engcolileyo. Kwezinye iimeko, imithetho echasene ne-doping itshintshiwe ukuze ibeke imiqobo ephantsi yovavanyo oluhle.
“Le miba ifuna ukuqwalaselwa ngokupheleleyo,” utshilo uGreene. “Ukunika inkululeko yokwenza kwisibhengezo esidlangalaleni kuya kuba sisizathu esihle sokuthatha amanyathelo, kulula ukusilungisa. Usenokufumana iziphumo ezingenazimpazamo, kodwa akunyanzelekanga ukuba zipapashwe.”
Ngelixa ityala lisalindelwe, uNash uye wanqunyanyiswa okwethutyana ekudlaleni umdlalo wakhe kwaye asebenze njengomongameli weKomishoni yeembaleki ze-International Cycling Federation. Uthe uyazi kakuhle ukuba abanye abantu baya kubona igama elithi "doping" ecaleni kwegama lakhe kwaye benze iingcinga ezingalunganga.
“Iyahlekisa kakhulu loo nto kuba ndiyithabatha nzulu,” watsho uNash, owaqala iOlimpiki ngowe-1996. Ubukhulu becala, ndibambelela kwinto eyenziwa [yinkampani ye-candy bar] kuba iphumelele kwaye ndiyazi apho yenziwa khona. inja.”
Ngelishwa, iyeza alizange lisindise uRuby. Malunga nenyanga emva kokuba uNash enze isigqibo esibuhlungu sokuyeka inja ihambe, wafumana umnxeba wakhe wokuqala ovela e-USADA malunga novavanyo. Ngandlela-thile, wayenethamsanqa lokuba i-USADA izimisele ukwenza izibonelelo zokufumana apho i-capmulin emzimbeni wakhe ivela khona-utyalo-mali oluya kugcina uNash kwiiMidlalo zeNgingqi.
Kangangeminyaka eli-15, wathi, ebezalisa zonke iifomu ezichaza indawo akuyo, waluphumelela lonke uvavanyo, kwaye akazange afumane ziphumo zibi. Nangona kunjalo, imithetho ifuna ukuba igama lakhe livele kwi-USADA yeendaba ngoLwesine. Ushicilelo loonondaba lwalunesihloko esithi “Imithetho yeWADA kufuneka itshintshe”, ibhekisa kwi-WADA engenzi nto emva kokuba iinkcukacha zetyala zinikiwe.
“Yinkqubo ekhohlakeleyo,” watsho uNash. “Le yinkqubo ephucukileyo, kwaye ikhona ngesizathu. Kodwa loo nto mayingasinqandi ekuphuculeni inkqubo kwixesha elizayo.”
