Seems like testing has really become more effective the last year or two. I’ve been frequenting this site 10 years or so and a bust used to be a yearly or twice a year thing. Now it seems like there’s a new one every week

They probably read LetsRun, where they are told repeatedly that -'everybody dopes', and high school kids are given advice on how to cycle peds.
Or more likely just Moroccan culture. A father injecting roids into his teenage daughter so she can win prize money for the family is hard to grasp for us, but not for them it appears. Passant's reaction to this is probably - 'I bet you the golden child Ingebrigtsen is not clean. I see no evidence of a revival of European running'.
If you skip towards the sprint 2:40 I think it does not look very ergonomic.
Not exactly your common "Helga Schmidt" or "Ursula Neureuther".

Actually a bit of ink on these sisters in the German and French media over the years.
Their mother was a German distance runner and met her husband while at a training camp. They're from Fontainbleau but joined the Saar club when they decided to all start for Germany instead of France.
The doping allegations are horrible- who dopes their kids? or are these pharmacy students DIY? Or is it a cancer treatment gone wrong? to get to Paris? It's really sad either way.
Definitely not cancer treatment- not in combination with testosterone for women. Usually used post chemo and bone marrow (rbc production) suppression.. Likely access to epo through their pharm connections. Gotta know the right dosages, ladies. Wonder if they know our resident genius, fastboy77?
True - a number of doctors found the initial allegations were too strange. Maybe Lance's doctor was the inspiration :/
It's a terrible story. I find the doping if minors is abhorred, not that I condone it in adults either, but this is worse.

(The dirt in SPE15 is particularly juicy...)
Responding to your own pathetic attempt at parody, how embarrassing.
Although there are cases of doping in Africa, you can’t make it an African affair man! People are people and will do what people do! Just like you, we still tolerate you here even with your flaws!
You would be amazed how many dope but have TUE’s. How many been treated with Centroid and still are, steroids for “flair ups or reactions”, not mentioning the Ventolin people! Human is human, there are cheaters but don’t make it a race thing as you are trying so hard to!
People on here saying that they are doping because of African heritage and not the German side…. Classic.
Hey maybe google doping history, the Germans invented it!
Mastered it!
Were the best at it especially with the women.
East German doping was the greatest program ever and in typical German fashion they documented meticulously.

This happened in your land.
The first time in my life where my money was stolen from my pocket that was in a European country that swear freedom and legality.
Speak of what is happening in Morocco. The first country with 37+ millions population (in the MENA) that was ranked yesterday as partially free country by the US freedom house.
With your criteriums (and repression reports).
By the way Benfaress is almost certainly an Algerian family name (if not Tunisian or Libyan). Ask me that has a half family in Algeria and another half from Souss (south of Agadir).
Doesn't seem fair that Germany is targeting their own athletes that are trying to compete on a level playing field.
Wasn't there a documentary by Hajo Seppelt that claimed you could walk into the Nairobi Airport Hilton pharmacy and by EPO there? Doesn't seem fair!

It would be interesting to know where her parents are from. German mother is confirmed- “met at a training camp”. And where was the camp? Confirmation where the father is from?
He himself was once a world-class middle-distance runner with a 1,500-meter best time of 3:35.99 minutes. During his active career, he made 15 international appearances for France and reached the semi-finals at the 1995 World Championships in Gothenburg (Sweden).
The two met during an altitude training camp in Font-Romeu in the French Pyrenees. The Benfares family live in France in the small village of Thomery near Fontaineblau, close to Paris.
