Pick one male and one female. It's okay if they're retired. For me:
Male: probably Symmonds
Female: definitely Simpson

I lost a lot of hope when Gay tested positive. If Bolt did I would be done caring about pro T&F.
Meb - his Boston win would be hollow
Webb.
3:53 and 3:46 were so exciting.

Yawn.
I would be more devastated if in 20 years they decide to legally allow PEDs and we find out that Manzano could have won Gold had he "doped"
Or any situation like that. People will be kicking themselves because they didn't do everything they could to win. It will be like the amateur vs. pro controversies of the mid 20th century.
The biggest for me would easily be Meb.
From an international standpoint it would be pretty devastating to see Geb or Tergat, if were still racing, test positive although I have my doubts about those guys.
