PARIS - French athlete Ophelie Claude-Boxberger, who tested positive for EPO in September and is awaiting news on a potential ban, says she is fed up with people talking about her life as if it were a soap opera.

The 31-year-old athlete, who has 14 French national medals to her name, then accused Flaccus of date rape back to when she was a teenager, something the latter denies."My life is like that, maybe sad, things have happened to me.Compounding matters, Claude-Boxberger had a difficult time at September's World Championships in Doha as she finished a distant last in her heat.
