Not true. She is coached by Aden through her husband (who is employed by Aden sports management group) and represented by Pineda (who fronts many of the Aden athletes). Why do you think an Ethiopian needs to travel to Spain so many times a year?

I feel like I’ve seen this before, but where is the proof and why the secrecy? Gezaghene was out in the open last year coached by Aden. He isn’t banned from the sport, nor have the Spanish ever charged him. And Tsegay travels to Spain for the World Indoor Tour meeting…not strange at all. Aden officially retired and I’ve never heard of a sports mgmt group. Just telling you this all feels very InfoWars-y with all these allegations

Funny the thread’s devolved into doping accusations as usual, presumably because the athlete is not American or from a western country. Tsegay hasn’t failed a test, so she’s as clean as everyone else or about as fairly doped as everyone else. Innocent until proven guilty is the name of the game.

Here it seems it’s guilty “innocent until proven guilty” only applies if you’re a US athlete.

Faintly veiled racism of the worst kind. Which stinks.

I can see where it would be discriminatory, but not racist. Most U.S. athletes and star performers are minorities. Unless you are saying "racist" against white athletes.

Not everything bad is "racist".

On another thread, a poster asked "Is it compulsory for British women 800m runners to be blonde?"

Most Americans don't realise that is racist, because in the UK and EU countries, racism is also based on nationality, not just skin colour, ethnic origin, etc.. Its indirectly racist.

re: Blase Bill

The better the performance, the more suspicious the performance. If you want to enjoy the sport, you have to put your head in the sand a bit. If you don't, there is absolutely no enjoyment because, in every race, you think that the winner was dirty and the losers clean. . . Had EPO and Letsrun been around in 1954, we all would have been talking about how suspicious Bannister's sub-4 was--a time previously thought impossible run by a guy who barely trained and ran poorly in the Olympics. . . . All this said, I don't think the performances in the 5k were that great, so not particularly suspicious. . . Also the who you associate with/where you travel game would implicate every single athlete competing.
