Watching the women's 5000m medal ceremony; I realise this may be considered an insult to westerners, but to Africans, chunky is good. Finally looks like a real healthy woman, curves and all.

This thread is useless without pics.
Well, considering that she was the skinniest Olympic track gold medalist of all-time, how could she NOT gain weight?

I think the link is wrong it should say ...f'ing-cheat... Not fisu-hero
She looks like a fit adult! What is wrong with people! She hasn't put on any more weight than Coe! She obviously isn't running twice a day and lifting. Appears she has also been busy with academics and a rather important job.
She looks great.
She looks real good
She does look good. I am not sure about the purpose of the original post. You should have put "GS - Gains Weight After Stopping Super Intensive Training...Looks Hot".
Szabo is nice looking, but her body is pudgy and soft.
She was in much better physical condition when running.
What an awesome runner she was when she ran.
In better condition for running but not healthier.
You're judging her health by a picture of her after racing? Thank you Dr.
she looks much better in the after running photos…

How is she any different than any other star during that era? You think anyone at the top was clean during an era of the sport when EPO was undetectable?

How is she different? Well, for one thing, performance enhancing drugs were found in her car.
An excerpt from an Irish newspaper article on Sonia O'Sullivan,
"In 2003, a bizarre-but-not-insignificant incident unfolded when the Romanian’s Ford Mondeo was stopped by French border police outside Monaco. In the boot was a package containing Actovegin, a derivative of calf serum that increases the blood’s oxygen-carrying capacity in the same way as EPO.
The car was being driven by Daniel Vlad, a friend of Zsolt Gyongyossy, and though Szabo wasn’t there, she was on her way to France for a training camp to prepare for the World Championships in Paris. In the end, Mihaela Botezan, her 5,000m and 10,000m team-mate, threw up a hand and said the drugs were for her and while Szabo was cleared, she quickly retired, skipping the Olympics in 2004. You put the incident to O’Sullivan given that her and Szabo seemed conjoined at the front of fields for so many years.
'When you’ve won a silver medal and there’s the chance that someone who won gold was cheating, then you’d like to know the truth. As it turns out there was nothing ever done and you just have to accept the way things are. But I don’t know, it was all very strange, and very quickly she stopped competing and you have to think why did she stop like that? It’s not like she was running badly, so why not carry on?' "
Seems the only difference was that she was dumb enough/unlucky enough to get busted. The others didn't.
