VIENNA, Austria - Triathlete Lisa Huetthaler, who was booted for doping and trying to pay off a lab employee, has announced a return to the sport of triathlon.
The 26-year-old Austrian, whose 18-month ban ended in September, is attempting to make a positive name for herself. She was booted after using anabolic steriods or EPO.
Huetthaler was handed a two-year suspension by the Austrian national anti-doping agency (NADA) in October after testing positive for EPO. She was also sentenced to three months probation for offering $27,450 to a laboratory employee to ensure her "B" sample was negative.
