- Ohuruogu pictured at track with boyfriend Antonio Infantino
- Italian sprinter is banned but British 400m runner exonerated
The British sprinter Victoria Ohuruogu has described her anguish at missing out on the chance to win a world relay medal last year after a 16-month anti-doping investigation cleared her of any wrongdoing.
UK Anti-Doping (Ukad) launched its case in December 2022 after Ohuruogu was photographed at a London track alongside her Italian sprinter boyfriend, Antonio Infantino, who is currently serving a three-year doping ban. Athletes are not allowed to work “in a professional capacity” with anyone suspended from the sport.
