Anybody who goes through great personal sacrifices to be competitive at sporting events (at any level) already has a different set of values and motivations than most people. So why should be we expect them to apply the same set of value judgments as most other people in regard to doping?

I've seen the egos at play in sports competitions, even at the amateur levels, so I'm not that surprised when I hear about amateur doping.
