I don't read French - what are the circumstances? Was Covid involved?

The website has an option to translate to english.
An english article, but details in regards to his passing not cited.
Thanks for posting. L'Equipe rules and is the best source our sport has for t&f news.
Seemed like a nice guy. Attended a clinic where he and Marion spoke. He also seemed like her body guard/bouncer. RIP.

Hate to hear of anyone dying, but this guy was a blatant cheater throughout his career and assisted his then-wife Marion Jones to do the same. Both athletes disgraced the sport.
RIP.

It says the reasons (plural) for his passing are still unknown.
Busted for nandrolone.
Was it worth it to die at 50?

I find it funny that you go by Aouita84.... Now seriously, you want me to believe he was clean? Good one.
What a nice picture. Marion is a beautiful woman. It is a shame she went down the wrong path.
Passed too young.
I still have my invite to their wedding in a box somewhere in storage. I keep the dumbest stuff for no reason.

So...the order of this epitaph is...: first, some woman's husband...then being a world champion...and finally a probably cheater. Damn. De-pressing.

Did Aouita die?
Did he get caught cheating?
Did he marry another world-class runner and manage her doping program which subsequently ruined her career?
Not talking about Aouita here are we? As the saying goes "You ain't cheatin' til you get caught". I'm assuming you feel the same about Coe, Ovett, Cram, Bekele, Geb, EL G...
Come on... Stay with me here!
