    The constant waves of busts, broken records and faster times cause me to question if there are any pros that are clean these days.

    At this point I assume the really famous ones just have more sophisticated help to cover their tracks as the money is greater. But some still get popped, as we have seen recently.

    Yes, lots of them. So many posters here who obsess about doping have no idea about what it takes for these guys to be elite.

    There is no magic sauce.

    Obviously it still take a ton of talent and hard work. Talent and hard work is what beats the other dopers.

    Who is clean, seriously?

    The kenyan and ethiopian women are so obvious lately, but I am sure it is everywhere.

    And with all the lower level busts coming out too, it's just not believable anymore.

    Then there was even that track meet in India where the runners failed to start when they heard testers were on site.

    Doping can improve your performance by several percent, which is enough at the elite level to make more money and win

    No. There is no magic metabolic booster.

    Pros get tested. Doping is way more prevalent in college because testing is so limited. Tuohy has never been tested and she is built like a sprinter.

    I can tell you an athlete from a top Midwest region school in XC that is 100% doping (he was last fall & spring).
    There is a lot of doping in the NCAA (among athletes racing fast at least).

    Rekrunner doesn't know anything about metabolism.

    The claims about doping do indeed revolve around a false belief in a supernatural metabolism.

    It's too obvious It's you. You are using literally the same words as always: magic, false belief... Now add myth and unicorn and we all know you are rekrunnering again.

    ash-troll has already told us they are dirty at ‘the next level’. Does it make it official when his favorite collegiate goes pro?
