Bulgaria’s athlete Silvia Danekova who was supposed to represent that country at the 3,000 steeplechase event in Rio summer Olympic Games was tested positive for growth hormone. Silvia Danekova herself said that she had not violated the rules, although her B sample was also positive. I was tested four times since I arrived at the Olympic village in Rio.
