Jason Livingston

Jason Livingston ( born March 17, 1971 at the London Borough of Croydon ) is a former British sprinter.

In 1990, he was sixth over 60 m at the Indoor Athletics Championships in Glasgow and Vice Junior World Champion over 100 meters. At the World Athletics Championships 1991 in Tokyo, he retired about 100 m from the inlet port.

In 1992 he won at the Indoor Athletics Championships in Genoa gold over 60 meters and was appointed to the British Olympic team. Shortly before the games he tested positive in a doping control training on 15 July 1992, Methandrostenolone, suspended and expelled from the Olympic village. His complaint against the then imposed period of four years for this breach of the doping regulations failed the following year, when he admitted to have taken a dietary supplement that without his knowledge contained this substance.

At the IAAF World Indoor Championships in Maebashi in 1999 he finished seventh over 60 m.
