    Deserves a thread of its own, as the other one today is already getting rekrunnered.

    Joshua Belet - winner of Amsterdam marathon in 2:04.18 Multiple steroids found in his system.

    Dorcas Jepchumba Kimeli - represented Kenya at World half-marathon championships. pb of 1:07.10 Tampering with doping control.

    David Kiprotich Bett - 2012 world u-20 5000m gold medalist. 19 norandrosterone.

    Two unknown sprinters, also for roids.

    Seems like ADAK are able to catch steroid cheats, but not so good at detecting EPO.

    ADAK suspends 33 Kenyan sportsmen and women for doping
    Among those suspended 26 are from athletics.

    Why do people who claim to love track and field downvote these posts. It breaks my heart that drugs are so prevalent in the sport. And I don’t care if they are African, British, Russian, Indian it just sucks that it can’t be a level playing field.

    So in just the past DAY alone we've had a 2:03 and 2:04 Kenyan banned. And we're pretending that it's only C tier Kenyans doping?

    I’m behind the times, apparently. What 2:03 guy got pinched?

    imagine if 20+ Americans or Brits got sanctioned in one fell swoop. Crazy to think about.

    + Ekiru with his 2:02 DQ'd for doping. But surely that's it now, no more bad apples, said the well connected Kenyan El K.

    Clearly rekbot and El K will explain soon why these two don't count. Just wait.

    If all the doped kenyan and ethiopians got caught,there'd be no distance running there.

    At this point I just assume any runner living and training in Kenya is doping.

    Why you don't mind your own buziness.

    Are you so jealous that despite the immense resources of your country you are unable to produce elite runners.

    Be reasonable: you are not made for middle and long distances

    Just like many other countries in the world.

    How many sub 2h 9 mins marathons runners you have?

    What was the weight of your country in the last Senior, U20 WC and cross country WC.

    You ask anyone in the world and they will tell you British have nothing bright.

    You have money and wealth and bury you old imperialist dreams.

    Officials for the most part hide the positive EPO results, otherwise nearly all top class E Africans would be eliminated.

    Waiting for all the Kenyan fans to come on here blindly defending these cheaters and attacking everyone else. Kenya should be banned for a few years and their athletes should be barred from competing in races aboard. Only then will they get their acts together.
