Doping In Athletics

[Oldman]

There is no doubt that SML is juicing. Another obvious character is Cole Hocker.

The US had 26 medals. The next nation? Kenya, with 11. Now, we know what sort of trouble the Kenyans have been in the last 10 years or so. To think that US athletes aren't juicing is absurd.

To think they weren't always juicing is absurd. American sprinting to distance has always had it's full roster of gassed celebrities.

Kenyan distance runners getting busted is getting so commonplace that it doesn’t even prompt a discussion here Only thing unusual in this one is that Korir simply admitted the violation and accepted the ban. He’s still got all his earnings. This is the 2nd time recently that a runner was positive CERA, which as we discussed before is a weird choice since it has a longer half-life than some of the other EPO formulations?

I’m also finding it remarkable the large number of busts of high profile stars in Athletics the past few years compared to almost none in pro cycling?
