Career
In the 2004 Olympics in Athens, Andrianova was fifth in the final,[1] so in the 2005 World Championships she was a favourite. When she received a bronze medal, she regarded it as a defeat. “I was so upset with that bronze,” Andrianova says. “I was already planning to get married and give birth to my child, and I was not sure I would be back on the track again. I was thinking probably it was my last World Championships. That’s why, when the things went wrong from the very beginning, it made me so nervous”.[2][3]
In 2006, she had her worst results but after the birth of her son Nikita, Andrianova began training as she was sure that her best results were about to come. In the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, Andrianova was hoping for a medal as she so narrowly missed out in the 2004 Olympics, however, she was placed eighth in the finals.[1]
Doping suspension
The IAAF reported in December 2015 that Andrianova would be retroactively suspended for testing positive for the performance-enhancing drug stanozolol. The test invalidated her results from 9 August 2005 to 8 August 2007.[4][5] On 14 April 2016 the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has overturned an Andrianova's two-year doping suspension because her sample was retested beyond the eight-year statute of limitations. "As the eight-year statute of limitations had expired prior to 1 January 2015, the 10-year statute of limitations provided under the new 2015 anti-doping rules cannot apply," CAS said in a statement.[6]
