María Isabel Moreno Allue (Maribel Moreno) (born 2 January 1981)[1] is a Spanish road bicycle racer from Ribes de Freser, Girona.
Doping
[edit]Moreno was due to compete in the Women's road race at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing on 10 August, but did not start having been tested positive for EPO.[2] Moreno arrived in Beijing on 31 July and was immediately tested. She fled the country for Spain that same day, having suffered a panic attack. The positive test results were announced on 11 August, making Moreno the first athlete to test positive for a banned substance at the 2008 Olympic Games.[2]
