I'm always entertained by the creative fan-fiction, all expressly designed to avoid providing facts, evidence, and observations that might promote some of the doping/performance mythology to reality.
Since there is so much interest in me: Most of my posts are responses to others already taking the thread off-topic -- sometimes I try to bring it back on track; I do not attack logic, but rather logical fallacies; I rarely attack posters' intellect, nor praise my own; I don't find "experts' expertise" interesting per se, and will listen to their opinions, and consider them with due weight, within the express/implied constraints and limitations of their context, and to the extent there is any factual basis for it, regardless of their expertise; in a post-mid life athletic resurgence, I'm proud to say I ran a few sub-40 10Ks all past the age of 40, but I was more an 800m/miler in my prime, and at my peak, qualifying once in a state meet; I don't have an engineering degree, but science degrees, a Bachelor of Science from a mid-western, nationally ranked American university, and a Master of Science from another nationally ranked American university (where I did not compete on the track, apart from a few road races and one intramural track event; I lost to Greta Waitz in one local race).
None of this off-topic diversion about me brings any of you any closer to providing facts, evidence, or observations to support many of the claims I find myself responding to.
Congrats rekrunner: you deflected successfully from Kenyan doping once more by making it into a thread about yourself.
Also congrats to your newly imagined university degrees - but you forgot that you pretended earlier to have a degree in Software Engineering from 1992.... hahahahaha
Don't blame other posters for getting confused about your story that you keep changing.
