Natalya Safronnikova
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Natalya Safronnikova, née Vinogradova (born February 28, 1973) is a Belarusian sprinter who mainly competes in the 200 metres. She won her first international medal (a bronze) at the 2001 IAAF World Indoor Championships, and entered the podium again in 2004. Anastasiya Kapachinskaya had crossed the line first and been awarded the gold medal but this was later taken back after she tested positive for the anabolic steroid stanozolol. This moved Safronnikova up to the gold medal position, though her winning time of 23.13 s was the slowest the title had been won in.
