Nelsen, a javelin athlete, was planning on attending the Olympics because he came in third place in the Olympic qualifiers.
The drug scandal sent him into panic. Although Nelsen's name was not mentioned in the investigative report, he had used illicit drugs before. He was worried he would be caught like everyone on the list had been.
Once he found out the International Anti-Doping Agency had come to America, he became even more terrified.
Nelsen wasn't able to concentrate on his training at all. He looked at his phone on the sidelines from time to time as if he was waiting for an important call.
Finally, the phone rang. Nelsen stopped his training and ran quickly to answer the call.
"Hello, it's me. We can talk now." Looking around, Nelsen didn't see anyone watching him.
He asked the voice on the phone, "What's going on? Are those rumors true?"
