No and no, but any idiot, even you, would know it's true.

Well...no evidence then wiseguy - you're making up that sh*t up is what I thought in the first place. ? Please continue with your clown posts. ?
If you want to learn about Australian anti-doping, you could do worse than to start here:
Some selected highlights:
1990 – Australian Sports Drug Agency was established.
1999 - Australian Sports Commission and ASDA initiated a nationwide drug education and enforcement program through the Tough-on-Drugs-in-Sport policy. This policy was in the wake of the 1998 Tour de France doping scandal.
2000 – August – AIS and Australian Sports Drug Testing Laboratory developed blood test to detect the banned drug erythropoietin (EPO).
So she comes out on Instagram and says she hasn't been tested in 2020.... and it was another whereabouts violation in January. She basically further implicated herself hahahaha.

A significant increase in the performance in Winter cross-country skiing.
I believe that this happened already in the early to mid-1990s, same as cycling and distance running. Bjarne Riis was cycling's Mr. 60% hemocrit Tour De France winner, Vladimir Smirnov and Manuela Di Centa the 200+ hemoglobin dominators in cross-country skiing that were never the same after the introduction of the hemoglobin limits in 1997. And Daniel Komen's best times, of course, were during that same utterly wild EPO period when there were anecdotes about cyclists having to wake up in the middle of the night to prevent their thick blood from causing a heart attack.
Meanwhile, the best, most successful athletes in each sport at that time - Indurain, Dählie, Gebrselassie - were never caught, and even now you can probably find some people that will declare they were just so much better than their competitors that they had no need to dope.
Compared to the mid-90s, the turn of the century was no longer as bad - there were at least some health limits, even if they could be circumvented with plasma expanders and such. And as a result of the small amount of progress made with EPO testing, some athletes were actually getting caught.
Why isn't Bahrain's entire program banned by the IOC? Do they have any athletes who weren't either bought from another country or committed drug offenses? I honestly can't think of one. Seriously, ban Bahrain.

She would have been tested at Doha. Unavoidable.

And this is the question that authorities needed to answer.

Yes. So, no doping to the gills in competition, but before...
During worlds, one has to respect to glowing times and detection limits, ideally with a buffer so one doesn't test positive in a retest four years later. However as the history of retesting shows, many cheats didn't build in a large enough buffer.

I think there is no doubt she has a problem with coordinating whereabouts with the testers.

Now that was a hilarious comment. Well done!
So who is her current coach ? Is it Aden ?
Did anyone notice how quickly the AIU updated their website and issued a statement to clear them of any wrong doings.
People kept asking how she was allowed to compete in Doha. $$$$$$$.
Nasser’s statement was damaging as it highlights the corruption that exists within the IAAF.
That nonchalant response makes me think she has had more missed tests but they were not documented. So to her it was “ normal”.
To add to the story, yes she was doped before the race in Doha.
She participated in the mixed relays and did rounds in the 400m. Where did that extra burst come from?
I don’t think people understand how fast she went and this is way out of the norm for any human.
This girl crossed the line and was ready for another lap. Cmon people.
Second place was also in range.

This is a good question (for the IAAF, not the IOC -- they are only responsible for the Olympics, and they formed WADA to manage the structure of anti-doping).
I think the best way to understand this is, the options available to the IAAF are 1) to ban individual athletes, and 2) ban athletics federations for non-compliance. Banning a federation only worked for Russia after there was a lengthy investigation by a WADA Independent Committee concluding with a recommendation to declare the federation (ARAF) non-compliant and to ban them.
As far as I know, there is no precedent or basis, that would permit the IAAF to ban the whole country of Bahrain, or any country, based on any arbitrary threshold of athlete anti-doping rule violations.

It's called hitting the floor.
Still no actual explanation from anybody why SRR should be categorized as a doper. I like Cathy Freeman, too, but the extreme focus on Australian anti-doping protocols in this thread is strange to say the least. And what about Miller-Uibo?
Exactly my point, Miller uibo was chasing her down the last 100m!

You can see why it was so hard for the testers to catch Naser.

Somehow, Ian Thorpe who was 1.96 cm(6'5)/104kg (229lbs) BMI = 27, a man with the physique of a modern heavyweight boxer, ended up destroying a middle distance / highly aerobic event like if it was nothing during that period ? With his last WR broken in 2002, at 20, one year before the first reliable rhEPO anti-doping test was made (Bernard Lagat was the first "victim" of it in 2003 ) ?
Swimming record are being broken every year, however Thorpe's 400m textile record still stands, 18 years after, which is an eternety in this sport (it took a now banned 'supersuit' to break it by 0.01s, seven years laters by a guy who was 3-4s away in textile ) .
Even the convicted doper and 400m specialist Sun Yang could not break it (sure, EPO usage is detectable nowadays, so you have to limit yourself and use less potent drugs).

In March 2007, L'Équipe, a French daily sports newspaper, reported on its website that Thorpe showed "abnormal levels" of two banned substances in a doping test in May 2006.
The Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority (ASADA) later confirmed that Thorpe was investigated for abnormal levels of testosterone and luteinizing hormone (LH); both naturally occurring in the body. Thorpe's elevated LH level was what caused ASADA to initially investigate, and dismiss, the test result. Thorpe denied the rumours in a press conference on 31 March 2007 stating, "I firmly believe I am clean, I have never cheated and have always fulfilled my obligations."
In April 2007, the World Anti-Doping Agency (or WADA) issued a statement condemning the breach-of-privacy L'Equipe's announcement constituted.
It became diffcult to use EPO in the mid 2000, so the reliance on steroids which are less efficient for this type of effort.
Rigorous anti-doping Australian testing back then? Please, let me laugh, Cathy Freeman was the icon of the 'Millenium Games', she was everywhere . She is definetely the kind of athlete who would have benefited of ASADA's leniency...
Ian Thorpe has an absolutely typical distance swimmer's physique. You don't know anything about swimming at all, do you? But you should at least know that the body is suspended in water and so the normal power-weight ratio criteria don't apply. I don't know exactly what you expect a 1500m swimmer to look like, but Ian Thorp is the ideal body type and proportion.
