Déjà sous le feu des projecteurs avec ses nombreux cas positifs, le Kenya devrait connaître encore des mois mouvementés avec l'instauration d'un vrai suivi antidopage.
Thanks, I look forward to it as I only can read English and Australian.
1. In the month of May there were 63 Kenyans who were suspended by the AIU not counting a number of numerous other cases with provisional suspensions.
2. A budget of 25 million US dollars has been allocated for combating the doping problem in Kenya over five years.
3. Kenyan roadrunners, up till now not controlled, will be much more controlled in the future at the National and the local levels.
4. Testing of roadrunners throughout the nation has already started this summer with numerous cases and this will continue.
5. Full time salaried Kenyan employee will train local employees to combat doping at local levels in different regions of Kenya.
6. New technologies used in Europe and the developed world will also be used in Kenya to combat this problem.
7. Up till now, most of the testing was done on track runners but now the new policy will embrace everyone - track runners and roadrunners and cross country runners and no one will be able to escape the testing.
A radical cleanup will be done at the National and the local levels combating the problem and restoring Kenya to its previous glory naturally is the hope.

It is too late. Doping is well ahead of antidoping and will increasingly be so - as we see with recent performances by non-Kenyans.

Thank you. Sounds like Kenya are eager to improve their image. No reason why Kenyans cannot still do well with a tougher testing regime, although numbers of top athletes will reduce.

It will only improve their image - like you say. It won't eliminate doping.

Yes, Kenya can emulate Jamaica. Tougher testing has not stopped jamiacans doign well, especially females. A profound running culture in kenya remains, but the path to glory will be a bit harder.

Of course it will never eliminate doping completely but it will radically reduce the chances of dopers being able to get away with their infractions and make potential dopers think twice before crossing the line.
By the way, in the article there was a separate link to the Rhonex Kipruto case in which Rhonex continues to maintain his innocence and supported by his coach the Irish priest in ITEN, Colm O'Donnell. The head of the US cycling body, Travis M. stated that there are many false cases in these kind of tests and taking this further this may have been the case with Rhonex.
Unfortunately one of the most important measure is missing:
Legal consequences, as doping is a crime. It is fraud.
What Kenia is doing is patchwork.
In other news Scotland beat Norway 2-1, in Soccer Euro 2024 qualifiers and home hero Erling Haaland, the Ingebrigtsen of the soccer world got a lot of stick for not signing autographs to young fans after the game. Looks like Norway will not qualify for next year's Euro Soccer.
"New technologies used in Europe and the developed world will also be used in Kenya to combat this problem"
I'd be curious to know which new technologies are used in Europe and the developed world that aren't being used in Kenya? They literally have a picture of Rhonex Kipruto there who was busted for biological passport.
They seem to be shifting their focus to the roads which they say was previously under sampled with just 40 Kenyan roadrunners in the testing pool bumping it up to 120. This is good news. If someone wasn't already in that pool of 40, it would mean they're lesser known. Expect a bunch of busts of these "nobodies" before it settles down from a flood to a drip. And expect discontent here when they don't see big-name busts like Rhonex.
A five-year project where "it's going to get worse before it gets better". I say: Good!

It hasn't ended doping in Jamaica. It will have made it a little more difficult, perhaps, and necessary to do it professionally. That isn't too difficult.

I think you are being optimistic. It will likely make doping more professional, as it does in most Western countries.
