Russian athletes were also deprived of all results between February 2012 and January 2014.
That is also true of the gold she won at the 2013 World Championship in Moscow. Russia won the Olympics in London with the world's best score of 1:25.02, and in June 2018 it walked 20km to 1:23.39, which is still a record time in power.
