We merged three threads together and combined the titles. We changed one of the titles as well as it was started when she had brielfy won the 5000 bronze.
Anyway a guide for the perplexed. Which is, if you medal at the Olympics you are likely doping, if you can run with the East Africans you are doping, if you medal running for Italy you are definitely doping, if your father/coach was previously busted for doping, you are doping, and if the resident board yahoos start defending you with their patented "yeah, that makes sense" logic, boy are you doping.

The battle against doping was lost long ago. Fans are the last to catch up.
Hope she gets her medal stripped soon. Blatant cheater who should also be banned from all future Diamond League meets.
She dropped 1 min in her 5K time from 2020-2021 (15:46->14:46) and then went out in top 4 at Paris in a race that went from 16flat pace to like 14:15 pace. Also nabbed 2nd in a stacked 10K field. Her dad, who coaches her, was popped in '99 for nandrolon. What more do you need to know.
Georgia Bell is wayyyyyyy more suspicious than Battocletti after that 3:52. I guess she wasn’t well coached at Cal. 👌
