Because last year she ran what? Are you just guessing or actually you looked into her running/life and that's your final conclusion? If so, please say more...
I thought the same thing. No comment about during the broadcast when they zoomed in on her shoe. It looked to me like her sock came halfway out late in the race. It looked to be stuck on her spikes on the home straight
Armstronglivs, you write some stupidity because don't know the truth.
Battocletti was cleared completely since FIDAL could demonstrate the supplement he used (and he has official contract with the Company) was contaminated. This happened because same supplements bought in different European Country were sent to the lab in Koeln with dr. Manfred Donike responsible, and the percentage of contamination was over 15%.
The fact he suffered being innocent is one of the most important reasons because he is ABSOLUTELY AGAINST DOPING and the use of supplements without being sure 100% they are completely Ok.
So, he well know that using not only illegal substance, but legal too, can produce big risks ruining the career of the daughter.
Try to inform yourself before writing stupidities.
That is every kind of response I have read for the defense of a doper - and especially from you. Always the "contaminated supplements". Yet he served a ban.
Your constant minimisation of Kenyan doping, despite the now established fact it is one of the worst countries for doping in the history of the sport, shows your flimsy credentials on this topic. Of course you will defend an Italian convicted of doping, too. That is quite apart from the fact that Battocletti has become a version of Lyles in distance running. A tireless sprinter. I'm sure her coach knows how to achieve that.
ARMSTRONGLIVES: you are a failed and bitter person. you have been writing the same crap here for years. you degrade strong athletes, make serious accusations without any evidence. that is pretty disrespectful to the athletes and their hard work. hard work that YOU probably never accomplished because you are a weak athlete, especially in your mind. Tell me why you can run a world record and become an Olympic champion WITHOUT doping. kipchoge, bekele, hicham, jakob, faith, chebet, el bakali, girma, cheptegei are clean. It is absolutely possible to get to the top WITHOUT doping. Talent + proper TRAINING = top results.
Then why do an estimated 1 in 2 championship level athletes dope, as confidential athlete surveys have indicated? Why do athletes spend over a billion dollars a year on the black market for peds if you think they can win 'clean'? If athletics isn't a dirty sport why does it have more doping violations than cycling - which is?

Renato, we have been trying in vain to tell him this for years and it seems to have no impact, as if his recalcitrance and ignorance are impenetrable. I am not choosing sides on this dispute, but thank you for spanking our resident clown.

An indignant riposte from a doping apologist is hardly a "spanking". It is to be expected. What is also to be expected is that it will meet with approval from those who want to believe the same as he. But it doesn't change the facts or the reality of the sport.
