I predict this comment is going to backfire on her.
And OJ was out looking for the real killers. Nauseating. She is fooling no one.
I'd be more interested in her criticisms if she actually took the time to articulate the specific concerns she has and suggested specific actionable changes that should be made. The fact she has never invested the time or energy to advocate for any meaningful change makes her criticisms seem simply self serving. If she'd spent her 4 year ban networking with others and creating an actual movement to address her apparent concerns, she'd have a lot of respect from me (though I'm a nobody so who cares about my respect!). Instead she spent the time from her ban until the Swiss federal court ruled on her case, skirting the grey edges (clearly training with the Bowerman group, trying to run Oly trials while banned) and thus she just doesn't seem credible on this topic.

She also never tried to show that her 🌯 story is actually possible. At all.
For example, by showing that her amount could actually have come from stomach offal, and that her CIR could actually have come from farm-fed pork.
Just a couple of trivial tests, but, no interest on her side. Either she doesn't believe it's possible, or she tried and learned that it really isn't possible.
Same goes for her "supporters".

She wants the ADA’s to catch athletes that intentionally cheat. Like her. She knows coz she’s been there.
She continues to act just like Lance Armstrong. Makes excuses for convictions, criticizes anti-doping agencies, constant gaslighting...
She's not wrong. We don't really know what Ruth did because that's the point of a masking agent. It could be Lance Armstrong level bad. Two years for that and four for the burrito. There probably does need to be adjustments.
That's rich, coming from a known doper.

Sigh. There is a difference between being caught stealing a bike and being caught in possession of a stolen bike.
What a ridiculous liar. You know you've found a true sociopath when they double down on their obvious, adjudicated lies, refuse to admit guilt, and try to gaslight everyone. Is WADA "caught up in trying to ban everybody"? Is that what WADA is really trying to do?
I wish she had been banned for life so we wouldn't have to read about her ever again.

“If she'd spent her 4 year ban networking with others and creating an actual movement to address her apparent concerns…”
What? No banned athlete would do such a thing and your expectation for her couldn’t be more vague. She was a banned athlete, and not an activist, and she’s served her time.
“The marathon world record was crazy to watch, but I also don’t want to
assume someone is cheating just because I don’t know that I could do
that myself,” Houlihan said. “I don’t want to put my own limits on
someone else–I want to believe things like that are possible. It’s a
hard topic–I don’t know what to believe at this point, whether that’s
the anti-doping agencies or the athletes, it’s a hard position to be in.
I hope at some point we get to a point where you can actually trust the
anti-doping agencies.”
This is an insane comment for her to make, and makes me respect her a lot less.
To equate the anti doping agencies to athletes that cheat and decide who to trust is just nuts.
I hope a lot more pro athletes come out strongly against what she just said.
Just because she wants us all to believe she was always clean does not mean we should mistrust WADA, AIU etc when they catch an obvious cheater.
Shes clearly implying here that just because Chepngetich was busted we should question it, like we should question her own positive result.

What did you expect her to say? If she crucified Chepngetich, she would be making the case that the anti-doping agencies were fair in regard to Chepngetich, but not for herself.
Her answer, more or less, was that she didn’t cheat and “I don’t know” for Chepngetich.
Prior to her comments, how much respect for her did you have left to lose?
Man caught robbing bank:
"You just trying to arrest everyone"
She should stop lying. No "anti-doping agencies"* did anything wrong in her case, even Tygart - who otherwise loves to criticize them all - confirmed that. She just didn't like the outcome, no more, no less.
And "they" are definitely not "trying to ban everybody". What a ridiculous accusation from that drug cheat, but sadly not unexpected, given her "character".
