And why is a college coach giving athletes injections of anything? When did that become a thing?
Or massages, or letting the athletes live at their house, or making up fake email addresses pretending to be a D1 coach. When did this become the norm?
Dirr said she didn’t witness a doping scheme or ever hear anyone talk about rape allegations or forced injections. She said there was an Olympic training center study backed by the university and parents to see how different body types reacted to L-Carnitine. She believes everyone who took part signed consent forms.
Angela Ganote asked Dirr “Did you sign it?.” She said, “I did.” Ganote asked, “To your knowledge, these are not banned substances?” Dirr said “No.
Caffeine is a banned substance. You drinking coffee and then running that would be illegal."
That's not even close to being true. If it was, most professional runners would be banned immediately.
Back to the topic at hand. Is Addy Wiley going to start the 1500m Friday or did Rojo use his mojo to discredit a young female cancer survivor with a track and field mega agent?
My money says Rojo is more usernames on here than you think. An no juice with any agent other than the one who handles his insurance. And with the statements that Rojo has made in these message boards and on the podcast you may want to up your coverage!

Rojo has bigger problems than that! He was caught sipping a latte before his jog this morning!
A few pages ago, I almost took the bait with Armstronglivs on whether or not Webb passed through 1600 meters enroute to his 3:53.43 mile in 3:52.0 or 3:51.9 (and there is easy to find video showing Webb pass the 1600 and finish, btw, so it can be known, but whatevs). We were calling each other moron and what not about it. Point is, on LR, there is a combative culture over trivial things. So, IF you thought I was Dirr, then throwing my gofundme in my face and calling me pathetic is actually pretty funny (and it would explain why you posted it). While you did not explicitly state your suspicions that I might be Dirr, I think it is a fair inference that it was possibly hinted at.
I guess you just have something against Dirr. Maybe you think Angie and her Boston gofundme destroys her credibility. Whatever. I don't really care.
I agree (LOL) with you on her coffee statement, though! I believe she is teaching elementary students now.
Wiley has dropped 7 seconds in a year in the 800m from high school. She's dropped 8 seconds in the 1500m. Does that mean she was clean in high school but started doping after all the scandals were over and after her hs record? On the pro level, you can see how much figures from Niels Laros to Jakob Ingebrigtsen or Cameron Meyers dropped, often as much as 8 seconds in the 1500m in a year, and that's for 3:30s and 3:40s athletes. Let's face it but time drops alone don't tell whether someone is doping.
But when you pass up D1 opportunities to stay with a couple that have a history of doping themselves and their athletes, that is a huge red flag.
When your coach is also arrested for sexual assault of a minor, on top of the doping scandal, and you still refuse to leave that coach...that is beyond a red flag. That is red flashing lights accompanied by air raid sirens.
In any other context, her progression would be cheered and celebrated. Her continued association with the Johnsons is the issue. They should be forever banned from the sport and serving prison time.

I hate to be the one that has to break it to you, but I remember this guy, real fast on a bike, and his name was Lance. Wasn’t he also a cancer survivor? Hmmm.

LOL- would be the end of the Coffee Club crew for sure!

This situation is so incredibly sad because this athlete is still so young and impressionable, and the people guiding her are embroiled in all of these disgusting scandals.

Let this be a lesson to all the fathers out there.
I ran 1:51 at age 19. Is it that hard to beleive that a few elite women can do it when thousands of men can do it?
No woman has run faster than 1.53.4 - and with drugs. That you think male and female performances are comparable means you take the prize for the dumbest poster on the thread.
You've shown a lack of comprehension of their post: an above average male hobbyrunner is definitely comparable to the best females ever.
The track action is still hot in Europe and China as Christian Coleman ran a world leader in the 100, Yared Nuguse got another DL 1500 win, 19-year-old Addy Wiley ran a 1:57, and we can never get enough of Jakob Ingebrigtsen...
