SOMEONE needs to send J.R. and Canova over there and tell them that PEDs don't work on Kenyans!

Hitting your thumb with a hammer doesn't work very well either, but a lot of people still do it.

Dementia is a serious loss of global cognitive ability in a previously unimpaired person, beyond what might be expected from normal aging.

Subjects may be disoriented in time (not knowing the day, week, or even year), in place (not knowing where they are), and in person (not knowing who they, or others around them, are). Dementia, though often treatable to some degree, is usually due to causes that are progressive and incurable

Thank goodness Driouch got out of there!

C'mon J.R., don't give up now, when we are so close! YOU and only YOU can persuade them, just like you have for all of us on Letsrun. FREE them from the evil hammer!

A finger in the bush is worth a bird in the tree - or something like that...

According to advertisements, hammers can be quite beneficial to the thumbs.

Second this. Trying to argue with an old, impaired person on a message board, is like trying to argue with your aging parents.

I wonder if Mohammed El Hachimi was, say, named Joe Blow from Dalton, GA, if you'd have posted "An American Marathoner tested positive ..."

I wonder if you are aware of the number of high profile moroccan middle distance & distance runners to test positive in the last 20 years, as compared to "Joe Blow from Dalton, GA"

Personally I would not be inclined to use "if" twice in the same sentence, but no, if Joe Blow from Dalton, GA had tested positive I might have said, "another American tests positive," not your suggestion.

Yet the "clean" Mo/Rupp can soundly beat them all.

Wow. What has Marrocco done to annoy the IAAF so much?

Not even with EPO Chris Hersh(?) could brake 67 minutes for the half marathon. Imagine what these runners are taken to break 60 minutes.

Interesting. The preogression certainly doesn't show the dramatic progression known to be the Letsrun sine qua non of doping.

break.

brake is in a car used to it slow down.

the promotion of doping is indeed scam. People are wasting money on something that clearly doesn't work.

his progression looks pretty normal on their chart. that's frightening.
