Ezekiel Kemboi

Vivian Cheruiyot

Asbel Kiprop

Edna Kiplagat

Abel Kirui

David Rudisha

Janeth Jepkosgei

Milcah Cheywa

Conseslus Kipruto

Brimin Kiprop Kipruto

It looks like Rosa or the son again

How many are involved with Rosa?

Africans do not dope. EPO make blood heavier, thicker, slower. This make athletes heavier, thicker, slower. EPO purely cycological effect. ONLY WHITE runners take doping produce, African runners run for pure reasons of love for feeling wind rushing past them!

Does Renato still post here?

I don't think he likes all the negativity posted about the Kenyans here.

Yah I feel like it really narrows it down to Kiprop unless they are exagerating.

Wouldn't Kiprop be catastrophic for the sport? He's holds the 3rd fastest ever 1500. I think most fans would quit watching if it's him. No way, not Kiprop...Kenyan athletics wouldn't let that happen.

hm high profile cases are usually rugged under the carpet with some money by many countries. that why we only hear some rumours

The Olympic Champion and fastest 100m runner of all-time (at the time) got caught in 2006 and the sport is still here.

I don't think I'll see Kiprop make Sports Center today.

Ever seen a picture of Frank Shorter losing to an African?

NO, because there aren't any......take the drugs out of the sport and Americans can win and win big.

^This. Most hard-core fans know that the sport is dominated by drug cheats, so nothing coming out of Kenya can be really catastrophic.

Bolt would be a different story, because he is known to all the casual watchers of the Olympics.

So, Americans don't dope...just the Africans?

no they are bid dopers as well. As are many europeans and asians. still the africans are the most reckless dopers. A farmer from africa really has the least to lose

Surely Bolt's samples have long since been destroyed. The IAAF can't take that risk. Wait for it....... the IAAF's troll will be along any minute to claim that nobody in athletics cheats and all the best are clean.

But...

"the IOC, upon discovering the clenbuterol positives, refused to disclose the results, and instead took no action. WADA later heard about this, and acted similarly (which is to say, didn’t act)."

Same old, same old.

And the was in 2016! So much for WADA having changed.

You must have missed when Miruts Yifter beat Shorter at 10000m in at the USA v Africa meet in North Carolina in 1971.

Americans had access to blood boosting, steroids and, in the 90s, EPO as much as anyone else. People who think that East African success in distance running is largely because of drugs have a skewed sense of reality. You could say "take the drugs away and white European men will be back dominating the sprints like they did 100 years ago." Not likely.

The majority are doing it the right way. It's gotten a lot tougher to be at the top and get away with cheating.

i have to go with Conseslus Kipruto, after an injury season and he come out to be the world best in staple last year.

A) The Tübingen/Harvard study says that 44% (likely underestimated, according to the authors) were drug cheats at the World Championships in 2011.

B) Seppelt showed that medal winners were more likely to cheat than the also-rans.

A+B: the majority of winners dope.
