In the Gault article she said she wants to explore ways to make an income over the next three years. Does that signal she's not getting paid anymore by Nike? Would love for let's run to find that out for transparency -both if she was paid during her suspension, and now.
As a result of her failure to establish the origin of the nandrolone in her system, the athlete cannot benefit from a plea of no significant fault or negligence.
For the sake of argument, say someone did spike a drink (or something) and you tested positive. How in the world would you even know or be able to establish the origin?
Has Emma Coburn been called on her B.S. on here yet?
Miss Emma with the most infamous anti-doping post calling Ruth Jebet a CHEATER CHEATER PUMPKIN EATER who went and liked Shelby's post, thus showing support.
I guess when it doesn't affect you and when it's your fellow white runner friend, you come to defense.
This whole post is a bit self righteous. She doesn't respect the sport? What a load of crap. You got a whole lot of unnecessary anger aimed at someone who likely made an ethically bad choice and had her life upended and her dreams ruined. Frankly it is less offensive than so many things said every day on these message boards.
If you had to choose between a doping banned houlihan or the brojos for a friend, I'm taking houlihan as a friend, no contest.
Posting your comment three times doesn't make the post you commented on an less self righteous. I don't think this forum needs any more self righteous losers.
Shelby will personally apologize to every fan before the Brojos admit to being terrible people.
Wtf? What is wrong with the Brojos? I disagree with them once in awhile but can't imagine not getting along in person? They love running! We would probably all get along well.
I don't think anyone believes the tainted burrito explanation with the exception of a very small number here. Tainted supplements is more plausible and the Ross Tucker piece that he did for Letsrun offers some arguments in support of that. In any event, it doesn't really matter much at this point, it's over.
The tainted burrito and tainted supplements are just as implausible as each other. All she had to do was to provide supplements to be tested.
What is up next? Tainted air that she breathed? perhaps it was the shampoo that she used...
She could have submitted the nadro pill , and have the lab verify that the nadro she took was in fact nadro.
I was shocked to see Emma was one of the first people to "like" SH's post. I'm also surprised at Shalane Flanagan's continued support of SH. What do these two well-respected athletes know that we don't know? I'm not ready to thrown in the towel on Shalane and Emma, I mean I own their cookbooks...Some clarity from them would be appreciated by their fans!
Disappointing to be sure, but no new information. Does anyone know if we will ever get to read the arguments presented in the Swiss Tribunal's decision?
I believe that someone sabotaged her food/drink at some point in time. Whatever the case, I don’t think she took what showed up in her system knowingly.
Yes, right after she dropped from running 4:05s to 3:57s with a blistering sprint finish!!

Was the pig on extra enhancers given by greedy farmers when no controls?
Did farmer shoot up the animal with the wrong stuff

Another 50 pages coming from the doping apologists arguing the injustice of the system and that it was "possible" she doped accidentally. And pigs can fly. (When they aren't being consumed in an offal burrito).
you’re the only idiot who reads or responds to those posts.
Every LetsRun thread ever on the Shelby Houlihan case:
Headline: Houlihan says something or posts something online or news breaks making her look worse.
Poster 1: Good riddance
Poster 2: Burrito joke
Rojo: ambivalent comment where he says he's not supporting Shelby but still comes across like he is supporting her.
Poster 3: she's covering for Nike/BTC. They're all dirty!
Poster 4: I think she's dirty but the rest of the team is clean.
Astro: all top athletes are dirty
Random guy who knows nothing: I bet she's still doping while banned! They should test her now
Poster 5: tells random guy who knows nothing how banned athletes are in fact still in the doping pool.
Poster 6: why doesn't anyone in BTC speak up, do they not care about clean sport?
We are just a day or two away from this devolving into a 40 page thread of rekrunner, armstronglivs, and a made just for the thread pseudonym who always uses the same logic, all to start arguing over the semantics of whether Houlihan is a doper/a drug cheat, and the details of the CAS case.
Bonus points for guest appearance from Keith Moulton.
Let me know if I missed anything.
One more thing. I'll chime in eventually expressing my annoyance with rekrunner, Armstronglivs and liar soorer repeating the exact same things that they have already written a thousand times each. They will ban the current liar soorer sock puppet, delete my comments as thread-derailing and liar soorers new handle, rekrunner and Armstronglivs will be free to get back at it for another few dozen pages.
Have you anything to say about anything, apart from "chiming in" to express your annoyance?

You get nandrolone from a spiked drink? That's new. Probably just as inventive as a burrito.
