Nowadays the most common cheating technique is use of illegal performance enhancing drugs. A lot of top athletes like Lance Armstrong and Marion Jones fell victims to the temptation.

The reason some athletes cheat is because of the huge amount of pressure they get from their sponsors, you see the thing is unlike most team sports athletes are on their own this means that they cant Dodge any blame for failure, and they only have one oppoturnity to prove themselves after years of trainning(this can lead to people doing things they normally would not)
other ppl just take the safer way...like the dude who got out of his race got a taxi to get him near the finish line so he could just run a little bit to cross the finish line...
there is a lot of ways people can cheat . For an example if you are running in a competition and your opponent place a rock infront of you the track u are running in and when the race starts you trip and fall .
People cheat simply to win. There is no other reason to cheat. Cheaters often play dirty just to obtain the glory or to win.
