If those two gals tested positive it would ruin my quest to discover the Turks secret training techniques that works really well. I am currently working on a book- Running with the Turkish Women.
If the CU Men's team gets busted, I wouldn't even know what to do with myself, that would be crazy, that would definitely raise awareness for more drug testing on the collegiate scene
You also have to think out of most training groups they train really hard at very very high altitude, so their blood content would show some suspicion, but that may only be due to environment and training
I wouldn't be surprised if Coburn or Simpson had a positive A sample while on the DL circuit, but a negative B sample, mater-a-fact I'm surprised that it doesn't happen more often with altitude runners being blood-tested

Men : Mahiedinne Mekhissi Benabad, because he is too goofy to get busted
Women : Paula Radcliffe because she has yelled so much about the dopers
There are a lot that would make me upset, sad, and even more mad...but the one that would leave me devestated is:
Deena Kastor
Lance Armstrong
Oh wait.....
Steve overt - great inspiration for me
Paula Radcliffe - despite what a lot of people say, I hope (and think) she is clean.
Maybe Dibaba too, the hot one.
Male: Galen Rupp ( also Rudisha or Meb)
Female: Mary Cain
Having met Meb I believe 100% he's doping. There's a sadness in his eyes.

Not because they're my favorite athletes, but because they're the American runners who can actually compete to win big time races on the international level. My 2nd choices (for the same reason) would be Symmonds and Coburn. I'd like to believe that the vast majority of American elites are doing things the right way.
By far the most devastating drug bust has already happened, and that was Lance Armstrong.

Narrows it down to three or four.

I have doubts about some of the more successful runners named in this thread. But with these two, I get the feeling that they choose to run clean even though it means losing to dopers.
Farah, Rudisha, Bolt
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
