I’m planning to run at college levels. I’m 27 and I’ve taken injectable peptides, creatine, and even ibutamoren throughout the years of weightlifting I’ve done.
Do we really think that ACTUAL competitive athletes with pro or scholarship potential or who already have contracts and can win race money aren't doping?
I’m a lightweight. I don’t drink, smoke, dip, snort, vape, or use drugs, so that’s SAYING something, that I’ve even injected or eaten things to increase growth hormone and wound healing. Hell, I've even taken Sudafed as a fat burner and performance enhancer. Again it’s crazy to think that athletes with more than their heart’s goals on the line aren’t using any kind of assistance they can get

I believe everyone is doping or microdosing or doping through tue examptions. To believe Kipchoge is faster because only he dopes is stupid. All do it and guess what?.......Kipchoge is fastest. Got it?

While I don't really care to speculate who is doping, this line of reasoning is actually pretty wrong.

Certain people respond differently to EPO and other PEDs. Also, certain regimes are much more beneficial than others, and there is a wide spectrum in the effectiveness of "doping through TUE exemptions," microdosing, and doping. So it isn't all even, even if a lot of people are getting around the rules.

Even in cycling, where doping is rampant, it is widely accepted that USPS and Lance were doing it the "best" -- had the best schedules, the best doctors, etc.

Look at marathon times through history. Go 1998 back and there's a good mix of nationalities with the fastest ever times .
In comes EPO and watch what happens. The spread stops and Africans dominate completely, which changes athletics to what we have now. A farcical state of affairs with rampant doping in east Africa and a few athletes in countries with testing finding a way to compete by beating the testers.
The reason athletics is failing is because it has been ruined by cheaters on a massive scale. Whether it's Russian state doping, Jamaican sprinters programs or East African long distance dominance, the fun has gone.
Kipchoge may be the greatest, but he's also the greatest fraud. 1988 is the last WR that should count , the rest have been tainted by EPO in my opinion.

You are correct, the fun is gone, we have to search high and low for runners to root for and right now I follow the Japanese runners. Their culture is honorable and I could be wrong but the times they run are legit. Running is the top sport in Japan and they make the Americans look really bad with the number of runners they have year in and year out running 2:06-2:12 times.
