Tested positive for EPO in Jan/2023 but "B" sample was negative & no doping case was pursued. Screenshot was found when anti-doping authorities confiscated his phone. 800m specialist - made finals at Tokyo Olympics.

The case against Bol was dropped last year after his "A" sample was retested and found there was no presence of EPO.
This, I guess, was what Bol had on his phone - from 2012

(worth reading the whole thing to understand how bad doping testing was)
 
Mclaughlin hahahah cant wait to see her time on the Olympics
tbf, even with her shady connections and stealth bomber prep, at least she repeats her performance in international setting.
With how American running times are at trials usually compared to the big events afterwards one could think that they are using yards instead of meters.
I'm kidding of course, but people peaking for the trials only to fail at the Olympics is something really American.
 


Tested positive for Osterine, RAD-140, LGD-4033 & SR9009. Talk about going ba*** to the walls with his doping (I don't think there's many SARMs that he missed taking here. Lol).

49th on the 400m all-time fastest list & a member of the gold medal 4×400 team at Rio.

I kinda miss those Balco days when virtually every top athlete partaking got popped for doing "the Clear" - whatever happened to those days?

So they banned a 35 year old guy who hasn't raced in 3 years. Classic smokescreen

Not a big fish by any means, but interestingly Taoussi tested positive for Roxadustat (FG-4592) - known in the doping circles as "Oxygen in a pill."
That’s a clever but not very apt moniker: roxadustat is one step further removed from the delivery of O2 to muscles and organs than EPO, although is in pill form not injection. Roxadustat stimulates the kidneys to produce more of our Natural EPO, which in turn stimulates the bone marrow to make more red blood cells, which have to grow until they can deliver oxygen.

Brazilian NR holder & fastest non-African ever in the marathon (81st fastest all-time).

Popped for three (3) different anabolic steroids per an OOC test on 070424.

I guess you could say he was all geared-up for Paris! Lol

Is Hassan really gonna do 1500, 5000, 10 000 and marathon? That would be a new one.

More generally, can one expect nuclear runs in the games? It would be wrong if cycling gets all the fun. I know ingebritsen has done some good times, but haven't been following track racing this season. What is to be expected?

Mclaughlin gonna destroy 400mH. In 100m man we can expect someone going under 9,70, woman should be close to Flo-jo

Can n't go busting people before the Olympics. One is supposed to show good manners and wait until afterwards! Pip pip!
How about this blast from the past:

Twenty-three top Chinese swimmers tested positive for the same powerful banned substance seven months before the Tokyo Olympic Games in 2021 but were allowed to escape public scrutiny and continue to compete after top Chinese officials secretly cleared them of doping and the global authority charged with policing drugs in sports chose not to intervene.

Several of the athletes who tested positive — including nearly half of the swimming team that China sent to the Tokyo Games — went on to win medals, including three golds. Many still compete for China and several, including the two-time gold medalist Zhang Yufei, are expected to contend for medals again at this year’s Summer Games in Paris.


You gotta love the OAC enjoying the broadcast rights revenue from that country no matter how it completely destroys the credibility. Credibility.....HAHAHAHAHA....money!

Hey, this completely misrepresents the situation. The substances found are often found in the air of restaurants and kitchens, so it totes makes sense that the team caught it en masse.
