Fall from grace: the Ben Johnson story

At the Olympic Games 1988 in Seoul, Ben Johnson won the 100 meter Track & Field sprint final. He lowered his own world record to 9.79 seconds. Three days later he was disqualified, because his urine samples were found to contain the prohibited substance stanozolol.

100% me is UK Anti-Doping's education programme which aims to prevent doping in sport. 100% me is about being a true athlete. It's about being able to say my performance is 100% me. There is no secret to my success - just hard work, determination and talent.

UK Anti-Doping is responsible for protecting sport from the threat of doping in the UK. This involves planning, implementing and monitoring the UK’s anti-doping policy and implementing effective anti-doping programmes.
