Hajo Seppelt
How do we award this guy? Get this guy a medal? Or buy him a beer? Or do we name our kids after him? He's done more good for the sport than Seb Coe ever will.
Is there anyone who has had more impact in the Anti Doping movement?

Who?
That one guy who did something once.
it's not over yet. the abnormal tests that were advertised? yeah, nothing done. the layers and layers of this scab initially picked by seppelt will take a miracle to come to light. when there is money to be made, there will be corruption. that will continue.
YES!!
Well, so far he hasn't reached anything.
Russia may get banned but even if that happens the ban will expire one day before the Olympics.
well, Dick Pound brought up a good investigation. If anything actually happens after all this, I'll be amazed. sadly.
Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ever hear of Hingle McCringleberry?

That's because the IAAF presumably won't process the positives.
It is possible that there is some wrangling such that the announcement is made all at once, wrapped up in a neat little bow, so as not to generate too much doping/corruption talk.
Jamin has my vote this year.
agreed. he is the man. it may not have been the most careful pieces of work, but it got to the heart of the issues and ultimately brought down the biggest players in the system.
Athletics Kenya now being investigated as a result of ARD. I wish Hajo would have done some undercover stuff here in the US.

I am not so sure about that. Effectively he has:
1. Outed Russia
2. Outed Kenya
3. Outed Ethiopia
4. Outed PR
The problem is not whether Seppelt has done enough. The problem is the almost total reluctance of the powers that be to show some transparency and actually act upon his revelations. Unfortunately Seppelt does not have that power.
I continue to stand by the post I made when I was unregistered.
Even more so about the Seb part.
Nice guy.
Well he's totally wrong about the Russians. If they were so doped, how come they can't remotely touch Paula Radcliffe's marathon record?
She's the last person who would dope, and Seb Coe has vouched for her cleanliness. So Seppelt must be wrong about the Russians.
