Mo Trafeh beats Ryan by 4 seconds in Houston Half.

Missed the whole last -300m or so on the camera because the cameraguy had to run to the finish...Ryan had a 5m lead with 300m to go and I guess Mo Trafeh managed to beat him in the sprint.

Very cool. Now, a lot of people talk about Trafeh being on drugs. Are there facts, specific reasons why people would say this or is this just another letsrun loser jealous of a rising star?

Fernando Cabada said so. We'll see, today he will be tested.

^I personally don't have much proof to say that Trafeh cheats, and will try to be neutral on this matter, but when in the interview with him when they mentioned drug testing he looked kind of nervous. It might not be anything, but it might be something. I'm not going to jump to conclusions, however. We'll see how the Drug Testing goes today.

Is there any reason to believe there wasn't drug tesing for top finishers at the following races in 2010:

NYC Half Marathon (March 21)

Peachtree Road Race (July 4)

New Haven 20K (September 6)

People said there was no testing at the Gate River Run, and I wouldn't know whether they tested at the Marrakech (MAR) half marathon, but it's not as if those were his only races in 2010.

Ryan hall was champion! Mo is a dopper. A piss test doesn't show gh or blood doping. That college drop out needs to take a blood test. He will never wear the red white and blue because in track he would get tested

That's ridiculous! I was watching the live feed - he was smiling broadly at the Runnerspace interviewer, who was congratulating him, while also trying to give his attention to a race administrator who had paperwork for him to sign or review - whether paperwork related to testing, I wouldn't know. But he did not look at all nervous.

Piss test for performance enchancers only, blood testing cost too much for meet directors. Everyone who has known mo since high school knows he would anything... Mean anything for $100. This kid ran every money race in so cal and didn't even win them all, running 30 mins for 10k and over night he is a world class athlete. Mohamed a professor at Ucr who coached mo for year can answer all our questions.

Definitely a dopper. Dopping is f***ed up.

I'm pretty sure Mo Trafeh is a drug cheat.

I can not believe the frick'in f-tard camera man!!!!! We missed that last 300 meters of the race! He should be fired today! What kind of bull$hit coverage was that? At least he could have stopped and pointed the camera at the runners but no, he just kept running and pointing at the ground, sky, bleachers, his frick'in navel! What a complete "Richard" head!!!! F-off big time pal!!!!

I agree with you 100%! You/kkk white boys are just some f***ing loserrrrrrrrrrrrrr. The black runner was faster today.

I didn't say that Ryan Hall didn't cheat either just that i'm pretty sure Mo Trafeh is a drug chest.

"He set his sights on the Twin Cities Marathon that September, when he'd be 41. His goal was to run under 2:20 and notch the A standard for the 2004 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials. Hellebuyck ran pain-free throughout the race, but as he approached the final mile, he saw that he still might not meet his goal. The experiment in which he'd invested and risked so much still seemed like a failure. And then, suddenly, he says, all of the years of training and all the injections of EPO kicked in. Hellebuyck felt like he was soaring. "I don't know where it came from. I got that extra boost, and I finished unbelievably fast. How can you possibly kick that fast at the end of a marathon? I say, You know what? That's the first time I was believing in EPO. It was not natural. I mean seriously, the way I kicked down that last 400 yards and ran [to 2:19:59] was just unnatural."

Hellebuyck got his qualifying time, and later the press asked him how he did it. "I told the reporters that I finally figured out how to run a marathon," Hellebuyck says. "I told them that I'd started training with high school runners, doing the strides and drills, becoming a lot quicker. That was somewhat true, but the real reason was I was having extra good blood. So then I was absolutely, totally believing that the EPO really works for me."

Like Brian Sell.

1 test: lie detector.

Ya, because they are never wrong.

MO is on drugs on my opinion, he was on drugs in high school and he ran really well, then went to college with drug testing and he did horrible, that is the truth, i know this guy, now he is back on drugs and quess what, he is dominating? how do you go from not scoring at a PAC-10 track meet to winning at a pro level????????????
