Many Russian athletes have been banned from taking part in the 2016 Rio Olympics because of a doping scandal. This was partly the result of evidence provided by a married couple, Yuliya and Vitaly Stepanov. Yuliya is a Russian athlete; Vitaly worked for the country's anti-doping agency. It was on their first date that Yuliya told Vitaly about corruption within his own agency. Together they decided to reveal the full extent of performance-enhancing drug-taking in Russian athletics.
