      • Yes possibly another hint. You can blow that last link to the front page up and read the article.

        Also says eight British athletes, including Mo Farah, Jo Pavey and Lisa Dobrinsky are going against the wishes of the IAAF and British Athletics and will be publishing their blood test results. No mention of any other high profile British Athletes!

      • It wouldn't be surprising with this time period to have the two North African runners, plus 3xPR, and 2xMikit, or Keitx2. The Kenyans showed plenty of suspicious blood values, but which here if any?

        In which case Liliya Shobukhova is one of the seven.

        But I don't know why more people haven't been calling out Mikitenko. She runs for an eastern european country before transferring to Germany. Then in 2008 she skips the Olympics and runs a PB in the 10k (road) of 30:57 and two weeks later the Berlin marathon in 2:19:19.

        Four out of four posters before you who made a list called out Mikitenko. Excepting the poster who went all Radcliffe.

        Obligatory quote:

        "One of [Radcliffe's] blood tests was conducted at the London Marathon, and Radcliffe, who is involved in setting up a new website for the IAAF educating young competitors about the dangers of drug abuse, has put in a request to UK Sport to publicise the details. 'I have absolutely no objection to my test being released,' she said. 'I would like to know it myself.'"

        Google has the page cached, the URL errors 503.

        She's forgotten she had access to ALL of her scores under ADAMS. All of them.

        What. A. Liar.

      • Do they have a new set of data, or is this from Seppelt's story/source?

        If it's from Seppelt's source, the World Marathon Majors is not only WADA compliant, but the anti-doping authority is the IAAF.

        That makes complete sense. Not a word about anti-doping details anywhere and no one saying a word about it. IAAF getting paid.
