	Sport \| Weary Szabo could be out until 2003
		Gabriela Szabo, the Olympic 5,000 metres and world 1500m champion, may not run again until 2003 after her decision announced yesterday to pull out of competition for the rest of the season.
		The Yegorova episode was probably the final straw for Szabo, who has also had to cope with a simmering row with her Romanian rival Violeta Szekely, who was claiming £100,000 in damages against her compatriot for calling her "ugly" in a television programme last year.
		Szabo said on her return from Canada that she hoped to start a family with Gyongyossy next year which, if the plan reaches fruition, would rule her out of the European Championships in Munich.

	CNNSI.com - Athletics - IAAF names Szabo female athlete of 1999 - Thursday December 30, 1999 10:36 AM (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		In the following year, Szabo won the world 5,000 meters title in Athens after collecting gold in the world indoor 3,000, a prelude to an extraordinary 1999 season in which she was named as the International Amateur Athletic Federation's woman athlete of the year.
		Szabo employed the same blistering kick in defending her world outdoor title in Seville, Spain in August, and she then won the 3,000 meter grand prix final in Munich, Gemany.
		Szabo topped the world indoor and outdoor 1999 lists over both distances, and broke the world indoor 5,000 record when she ran 14 minutes, 47.35 seconds in February.

	CBC Sports Online: Szabo outkicks fellow Romanian for 1,500m title (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Szabo won with the same kind of devastating kick that won her a bronze in the 1500m at the Sydney Olympics, where she made up a huge gap with the frontrunners after nearly being wiped out by a fallen runner with about 200m to go.
		Szabo made derogatory comments about Szekely's appearance and running style, in addition to hinting that Communist-era Romanian athletes were dopers, in an interview early in 2001, but publicly apologized for her remarks afterward.
		Szabo, the two-time defending world champion, threatened to skip the 5,000m if Yegorova was allowed to run, but Yegorova is also one of a number of athletes found to have an irregularly high concentration of red blood cells -- a sign of possible EPO usage.

		This time round, running a blistering race down the home-stretch after staying in the wake of the leaders for the best part of 5000 metres, Szabo stormed to the finish in a time of 14:40.80.
		Continuing her awesome dominance in 1999, Szabo took the 3000 in Berlin, sweeping the event in all seven Golden League meets and sharing the $1 million jackpot that goes to athletes who remain unbeaten over a season.
		Szabo took to running only when she realised she wasn't going to make waves in those events, and her short stature made her third love, basketball, just a pipe-dream.

	Athletics: Golden moment as Kipketer and Szabo romp in
		First to congratulate him when he crossed the line in the stadium which hosted the 1936 Olympic Games, was Szabo, the little Romanian who earlier made her share of the jackpot safe by employing the same tactics she has used all season.
		Szabo came to Berlin after victories in Oslo, Rome, Paris, Monaco, Zurich and Brussels in a year when she also won the 1500m and 3,000m double at the world indoor championships in Maebashi, Japan in March and retained her world outdoor title two weeks ago in Seville.
		It might not compare with the riches Szabo and Kipketer took home, but for an athlete more used to running in anonymity, the thrill of competing before a crowd of 40,000 is one that will live with her for a long time.
