Titus Ekiru banned for 10 years after doping and faking hospital records

What I now wonder is what Kenya has to do to actually get banned. Surely they are as bad as Russia was at this point?

Oh, and did I not say masking agent is in the stack? You have to be stupid to be glowing all the time to get caught

Not if it’s a clear-cut case like this one and there is no defense from the athlete. EPO/ABP can be slightly different though not always. You have to get a prompt and at least compelling (not Kiprop/burritos) defense. This one has been a fait acompli from the get-go.

So… everybody doping but nobody is popping because the dope is fake

but times are fast because everybody is doping

Masking agents pop too

We all poop

I seriously wonder what it would be like to live inside your head.

Looks like Titus Ekiru was busted for triamcinolone acetonide and pethidine. Not sure these are the new super-PEDs people are looking for. Triamcinolone acetonide has been around since 1958 and pethidine since 1938.

With respect to "DNA", I don't think East African world dominance is genetic, but environmental.

With respect to "neanderthal", I have no clue what you want to say, but it seems highly insulting, if not racist.

With respect to "EPO works", anyone living and training at altitude has continuously stimulated EPO, and therefore continuous production of new RBCs. It's like natural, WADA-legal, continuous EPO micro-dosing 24x7x365x4life. I would think populations living their whole lives and training at altitude would disproportionately dominate events where "EPO works".

It's getting ridiculous that people continue to deny that something is too good to be true when it obviously is.

It's not even impressive anymore seeing world records, knowing that plenty of people ran slower while on performance enhancing drugs.

To be comparable to Russia, the Kenyan government, Athletics Kenya, and Antidoping Kenya (ADAK) would have to be both doping all of their national/international athletes, and covering it up.

24x7x365x4life ??

Come on, Tit Mouse!

Geez Loweeeeeeez!!!!!

You be lying, dummy.

Lol rekrunner coming to the defence of yet another drug cheat - what a surprise.

Let me guess: he didn't really dope, it didn't help him, and he doped only twice, amirite? Plus one cannot trust WADA and AIU "experts". So he is innocent like Kiprop and Houlihan.

Titus Ekiru makes at least three Kenyans at 2:03:13 or better to be caught doping, along with Lawrence Cherono and Wilson Kipsang, the former world record holder.

To clarify for Kipsang, a whereabouts failure is a doping violation not caught doping. And it’s exactly 3, weird to say at least 3.

To further clarify, Kipsang was also banned for tampering.

Nothing loss for him. He gathered more wealth than he could have done otherwise. He is what like 2:10 guy at most without doing which he wasn't gonna get peanuts outside of free gear.
