One small line saying the doctor has talked about legalizing epo (with no proof), and now no one believes geb and bekele were clean? Letsrun really might be bad for the sport
Do you actually believe they are though?
No matter which dodgy doctors work with Hermans, there's very little doubt your happy smiley 'very...happyy..' heroes were filthy dopers.
There is nothing explosive, Hermens says, "no" to doping:
it gets better wrote:
Also, he had to know that Komen, Ngeny and even Kiptanui were on something. WR's were falling every week sometimes in the late 90's. Then the EPO test came out and there was a curtail. Seems people had to learn how to work around the system a little bit. Couldn't just take it 365.
Honestly, it is Kiptanui, not Tergat, who I think might have been clean in the 90s. But who knows at this point.
Good article. I hadn't seen this before:
"Apparently world record holder in the 1500m, Genzebe Dibaba’s coach, Jama Aden may be under investigation.
Last year two of his athletes were suspended including Laila Traby of France, who is a 10,000m runner. French police found EPO in her apartment,"
God I hope they nail that guy.

Lol youve read the letsrun forums and think you know anything at all
That sentence in the article is pulled out of thin air.
1. If the journalist actually had a source saying Aden is investigated, that would be a top fuking story itself, not mentioned in a passing
2. Traby lived in another country, their contact was through e-mails only. Aden could of course not know what traby was up to, just like none of us can ever know what the neighbour does, what your brother does, not even what your wife does all of the time. How many have been cheated on without knowing? Most of us.
3. The other athlete they're talking about wasn't Aden's athlete.
why does a mag like athletics illustrated publish something like that. They've completely lost it
