Robles' journey to the Olympics was not easy – in between the 2012 and 2016 games, she faced a two-year suspension for steroid use.
According to Reuters, Robles said her ban was, "the result of unknowingly taking an over-the-counter supplement that contained a banned substance."
Despite her suspension, she continued to train and work toward her Olympic dreams. “I know I’m a good and honest person and if I put hard work in I would be able to reach my goals.”

Congratulations, Sarah!
