A verbal appeal is not enough, and we require a formal application. It has not yet been decided as to when sample B will be tested.

Through all these tests this year, 26 cases were tested positive, but not all of them were found during the National Games.

If an athlete misses two out-of-competition tests, it will be counted as a positive case as well, and the athlete concerned will face at least a two-year suspension.

It is also the first National Games after the two important regulations on doping control were issued, and it's an important opportunity to check our work.

I have no qualifications to do anything else and there weren't any formal application forms you had to fill in for stand-up, so I thought I'd give that a twist.
