bà lão 80 tuổi lập kỷ lục đạp xe, rồi bị buộc tội... dùng doping...
-----

...Nearly a year ago, Gicquel, an 80-year-old grandmother, therapist (nhà trị liệu) and avid cyclist from California, set a world record (kỷ lục thế giới) for her age group at the 2019 USA Cycling Masters Track National Championships. She had been a regular on the medal podium at masters cycling events for years and was thrilled with her latest achievement.

But because a record was involved, Gicquel was subject to drug testing. She failed the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency's urine test (thử nước tiểu), which set off a year-long legal battle and raised questions about whether prescription medication (thuốc điều trị kê đơn) that Gicquel had used for years enhanced her performance on the track.

"It's been a roller-coaster ride emotionally," she told The Washington Post in an email, "fraught with anxiety (lo lắng, bất an), some depression (trầm cảm), and disbelief (sự hoài nghi) that they wanted to believe I was doping, rather than just trying to live."
