Why is Khalid not our hero?

Shorter was born in Munich.

Jersey guy:

What do you want, the needles or something to show up in your trashcan? I'm not a whiner or one of those losers who thinks everyone faster is on the juice; hell, I'm not even as good as Khalid was when he was still washing dishes.

But everyone knows the testing, etc. is a joke, especially among the road jockeys. Everyone knows Sandra was close with Rosa. And many runners are aware of the daily "vitamin" injections Khalid takes. Then there is the closest thing to evidence I can get without being a drug tester, which is personal conversations with elite distance runners I trust.

Get in on a few of those and I think you will find out what the consensus is about Special K.

That's very understanding. Meb, Abdi, Maree, sooo many.

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, my parents were born in the south ( Soouth Carolina, Georgia) so were there parents.

Being lean a with a dark complexion, I 've been mistaken of being Keyan. It fun sometimes and other times I'm like NO I'm not Tanui, or NGATIA! Or some other Keyan. But is does intimadate because I can show up at a 5K and and everyone stairs! and is surprised when I don't run 13:20

So what if KK is juiced...they guys he whups are juiced too. If everyone were clean he'd still be the best marathoner in the world.

I agree

all i have to say is that has put int the time and paid his dues. he came to America and washed dishes fo gods sake and put in the mileage and worked hard. He also races like a man!! he does not trash talk and he does not dodge bullets as in teh competition and as for the 2001 world champs sure his wife had some lame ass excuse but he came back later and basically said "yah, i screwed up" and that is more than any other americans do when they race bad...ie Suzy,Ragina (drug-ina) and gaucher...

II think it is ignorant to assume that many of the guys at the top have not used or are not using something. Everything I have heard from people in contact with elite runners, even just the Kenyans traveling to road races in the states, indicates that to stay competitive at that level most people use something or other that isn't legal. But that's another topic. And I agree with the technically innocent until proven guilty stuff.

Don't be kidding!So not only elite runners but Kenyans traveling to road races who don't know you at all,and you don't know them at all,somehow contacted you in private and told you such dangerous information ?What a story!I bet 1000000 dollars you have never heard such things in your life. If you want other guys to believe your special story,make better one!

I noticed ESPN magazine put out a list of the top 100 stories of 2001-2002 and the greatest marathon ever didn't make it. It couldn't beat out Will Smith's performance in "Ali", a skateboard movie, and some junior welterweight boxing match. But in the front of the issue they did mention that the relative speed of waves crashing on a beach equals KK's mph speed in his WR.

Yo, too much personal information than we really want to know about you....the only anti-american person seems to be the man in your mirror. Do you dislike being white or something?

People generally have the same wants and desires all over the world....japanese or kenyan folks are no better or worse than americans...there are a load of greedy selfish folks as much as there are a hard working honorable folks....Unless you are actually asian or at least grew up within an asian family, you will always see asians through rose-colored glasses....
