No not elite. Thousands have ran faster than ~30 min 10000m .... World Record is almost 4 mins faster ....

Preliminary evidence suggests so.

It's all a charade. You play the game by paying back and the penalty's lessened. The big players never get popped since they bring in the big dough (go figure) and everybody goes home happy - at least the people with the deep pockets.

So you believe in sex discrimination. We are not living in the 1910s, the world has moved on. It is a very good time but not elite. You may as well say that the world record holder for a marathon in a superman suit is elite if you believe in protected subcategories.

So all these 58-59 and

2:03-2:04 clockings are fishy. Depressive

Old news. She was busted a few months ago. The news is about Turkish Athletics Federation banning her for two years.

What the hey, according to Canova, she didn't actually benefit from the drugs; drugs don't work on the elite after all.

A 7 year ban would be much better.

So why did Gay, Gatlin, and Asafa get busted?

For years having trained with Ethiopians I defended East African runners as I'm sure the ones I knew were not doping. However, they were more at the level of top English runners & it's becoming increasingly obvious that the top ones at world level were doping.

How is someone from Turkey illustrative of the notion that top (or any) East African runners were doping?

What are you, 75?

I've tried my best to show my mom (69 years old) how to copy-and-paste links and text into emails (on her desktop with a proper mouse) but I have failed. I think that you have to be under 50 to know how to copy-and-paste

She runs for Turkey, she's still an Ethiopian.

More proof that you´re an idiot?

I guess you have sex with whoever gets in your way, since you don´t believe in "protected subcategories"? Women? Men? Children?

Ahhh, gotcha. Was she running for Ethiopia, and living/training there, at the time she was doping?

-1/10 for having no sense of humor. I laughed :D

It was a joke. I was pointing out how ridiculous the 'drugs dont work on elites' argument is getting.
