Another Kenyan runner unfairly banned for being tricked by racist WADA anti-doping rules.
Jake Wightman isn't going to be tripped up by unknowingly consuming a banned substance in McDonalds, but a Kenyan eating a natural diet cooked by his traditional Kenyan mother might and is.
Has any Kenyan actually been caught injecting themselves with EPO? Probably none.

From the article:
"But an investigation by Athletics Kenya failed to substantiate either claim."
Totally debunking your theory that Athletics Kenya protects dopers.
Well done Athletics Kenya.

In my opinion no they just protect people they like/who bribe them and turn in people they don't like to gain credibility with gullible idiots like you.

The good news is that no one cares about your opinion.
Your worthless insults only make me happier to support Kenya, Kenyan athletes, and Athletics Kenya for their good work.

Funny story though.
EPO in the generations old family recipe.
Even the corrupt Athletics Kenya have to laugh that one off, still frustrating that they're still catching so many despite the lack of testing.

Only on LetsDope.
In the real world, Kenyan performances hold no more credibility than those of Russians, and Kenya is likely only several more major busts away from being banned.
Just look at him. Nobody feeds him, including his mom.
Shame on you, bony drug user!
Higenamine is a naturally-occurring chemical in fruit as well as being common dietary supplements.
It was only recently banned by WADA and is still permitted by many professional sports bodies.
It has no significant perfomance enhancing or training effect for distance runners.
As much as many would like to hold this up as another example of a dirty African doper, this is closer to what the athlete claims... tripped up by vague and shifting rules.
Nothing more pathetic than Coevett impersonating others.

Thank you for the information regarding this specific substance.
[Harvard Study] found higenamine in 24 readily-available supplements, mostly marketed for weight loss and energy boost. ...Endurance athletes looking for a quick boost might take it too, he said, “although the half-life is really short, which limits its usefulness for many endurance activities.”https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2018/09/06/study-avoid-nutritional-supplements-higenamine/1208664002/

It’s his job as a pro athlete to figure out what is banned..... and not consume it.
Remember when you had to do was be talented and train hard? Now you have to bone up on law, biochemistry, and pour over the WADA website regularly...

I don’t know. That El Keniano dipshît certainly gave him a run for the title.

It is not easy. In America, according to Athlete Ombudsman for the US Olympic Committee (USOC) John Ruger, 40-60% of doping is inadvertant.

Even athletics Kenya didn't believe he was taking it through herbs, but LetsDope completely exeonerates him. And even if he did, it's used as a traditional anti-asthmatic medicine. How difficult is it to check whether a herb is on the banned list? You claim I'm racist but your chief defence of Kenyan doping is that the population of Kenya are illiterate savages.
Just to make clear to the Russian troll Spade Detector and the mods - I'm ot saying this, you and the other racist doping apologists are saying this or implying it.
Despite most Kenyan runners not being able to read or write according to LetsRun white saviours, anyone who claims age cheating might be easy in Kenya is also a racist.
He took an illegal and dangerous substance because he thought it would give him an edge.

He should have blame dehydration, faulty lab equipment, antibiotics and training at altitude. Then the IAAF would have written a nice whitewash report for him to officially establish that the positive test was just a misinterpretation of the data.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
I think Letesenbet Gidey might be trying to break 14 this Saturday
