When do we get the news?
Nothing yet about the three hammers, which are maybe in a low earth orbit and about to burn up on re-entry, which is basically what happens to most drug scandals in track and field, aside from the Russians at least. To make it clear: by burning up, I mean, "extortion."

It is just a coincidence.

It is just a coincidence.
All I see are managers without weak mind disease.

Oh, this would absolutely crush me. Please, not Stanley. I never cared for Jemima Sumgong (visceral distrust ever since that initial positive a few years ago) and Rita Jeptoo was never my favourite either. Biwott, otoh, I've met briefly and found extremely nice, humble and down to earth.
People don't grow horns on their head when they dope.
So easy to predict it's Stanley Biwott
.it's actually one not three take it from me iam 200 percent certain.
What about a Robertson twin? Any truth to that post earlier?

No, zero legitimacy. There are some haters of the twins on here that like to talk negatively about them.

The BBC says it's two distance runners.
SHAREDTwo Kenyan athletes 'fail doping test'

The BBC has learned that Kenya’s athletics association has received a report indicating that two long-distance runners, who have yet to be publicly named, have failed a doping test.
The association is delaying identifying the runners so as not to spoil a planned reception for long-distance runner Mary Keitany, who won the London Marathon women’s race last weekend, breaking the world record.
Only three weeks ago, another Kenyan, former London Marathon winner Jemima Sumgong was suspended for failing a drugs test.
Some of Kenya’s elite athletes are said to be worried that the doping scandals could severely dampen their successes and they will be demanding decisive action against the offenders.

LetsRun.com has men on the ground in Kenya for an investigation.
Better link:
If the names are big enough to potentially overshadow Mary's reception, I'm guessing both are marathon runners. People here seem to have settled on Stanley Biwott but I'm not ready to even entertain thought.
Since everyone is guessing, I might as well come up with my own names:
Sarah Chepchirchir (Tokyo) and/or Purity Rionoripo (Paris), mainly because they're from Jemima's group.
I wish they'd just announce the names and get it over with. More clues:

He's already looking to the future so hopefully not him. I dont think someone who knows about a failed test would target 2018.
Think harder.
Yeah, cos that's what you're supposed to think.
so when do we get to know? Don't tell me we only know the names a few months later
Maybe the OP of this thread knows and can finally spill the beans? We''re tired of waiting.

Yes, but you're Christian, right? It's like Christmas. The anticipation makes it mean all the more.

Bone morphology and development (while, indeed, *highly* responsive to environmental factors and stresses) does have some genetic predetermination.
I agree that the development environment plays a big role, but it's also easy to imagine that an Aisian or a European who grew up in the same conditions wouldn't have the same architecture as an East African.
my hypothesis is in line with your reasoning that the environment in which they're raised has a systemic benefit for distance running dominance that would likely be replicated across populations, regardless of genetics.
this seems like an argumentum ad modicum, as your third quote states fairly completely what I'm saying. I don't think I claimed all morphology is genotype-independent. Of course a Japanese is not likely to grow up built like Wilson Kipsang on any diet. But develop the essential characteristic of a lightweight frame adapted for speed and efficiency, yes. That can be done anywhere.
But in the United States, if you feed your children that sparely, the state will take them from you. It's impossible to compete.
Hammer people, be glad someone's providing a bit of entertainment while you wait.
