Slovenian long distance runner, Helena Javonik has been cleared of doping charges by her country's athletic association.
Javornik, who has maintained her innocence, is Slovenia's national record holder in the 10,000 meters (31:06).
What is sad about cases like these is that once an athlete is accused of doping it casts a shadow over their past, present and future performances. Of course this shadow lurks over the athlete whether they are innocent or guilty. We can only hope that Javonik is indeed innocent.
