She was given a two-year ban from competition, lasting from 10 February 2012 to 2014.
Abnormalities in her biological passport showed proof that she had committed doping offences.
Her results were annulled from 20 August 2009 until the date of the ban.
This period included her European marathon title win, her 8th placing in the World Championships
and her personal best-setting run in Shanghai 2:26.05.
