Summary/Reflection


Summary/Reflection

Alex Schwazer from Italy won the gold medal for speed walking in the Olympics. He took a world record time and he was joyful when he had finally finished the race and won first place. However, he was caught using drugs to enhance his performance and ended up being banned. He gave a lengthy, tear-filled press conference saying he was happy to have been caught.

 

I think that Alex is not a good person. He chose the wrong and decided to cheat and win the race through other means instead of being fair. He knew what he had done and like it said, he was happy he was caught because he was feeling so guilty of what he had done and his conscious had been eaten up by his guilt. He is an example of what can happen to you if you choose the wrong and don’t play by the rules.
