You gotta wonder where her parents were in this. So sad on multiple levels.
Armstronglivs “If it’s too good…”
I don’t think we’ll learn anything from this, we’ll just sweep up the wreckage and say it’s a one-off and move on. Look at the absurd set of circumstances necessary to bring it to light. I guess the system worked 🤦♂️
Her salvation is to come out now, and hard, with the story that she was manipulated, doped against her will, or was misled about what she was being given.
I'm not buying this Addy Wiley at all. Do they drug test in High School- like for Steroids, performance enhancing, doping, etc.? You know Marion Jones still holds HS records decades later, because she was obviously doping in HS. Not buying either she gives up Boulder (was she recruited by Stanford, NC state?) to run for some local Junior College where surprise, her coach's husband was just busted for roids and PEDs. No way does a High School girl suddenly run a time like this out of nowhere. DO they drug test her at her junior college and the joke league she runs in?

Tests doesn't catch dopers 95% of the time, apparently the program Wiley's in doped their athletes to multiple* national titles yet the public only knew about all the doping and abuse because they came out.
Apparently at least one of the HU runners was busted recently for doping at the NAIA nationals. There is a long thread on the scandal. And, yes, it is pretty clear what occurred, but there are sensitivities in discussing this subject openly.
