Those of us there at the armory that night saw how easy she did this- too easy in fact , for an early season meet. I suspected she was juicing. Now it has been proven.

Adidas teammate Charlene Lipsey (Hempstead, New York) also finished under the 2002 AR (1:58.71) in 1:58.64.

There's no way that triggered a positive test. Either she was eating kilos of beef per day or something's fishy
Dawn Harper, b Rollins, a Wilson...All sorts of excuses... minimal sanctions...she is responsible for the anabolic steroid present in her meat...
Someone should tell Ajee NOT to listen to that RV ridin, Beef eatin, high flyin, Fifty two marathons in a year runnin, son of a gun, Dane Rauschenberg.
Ajee' has always ran with ease and has been tested after each of her races in the past. Her smoothe performance at the Millrose Games is nothing new to what she's already been doing since her youth.

If she tested positive for eating regular US raised beef, where are all the other positives from other US athletes eating the same US beef?
Or what is different about her metabolism/eating habits that resulted in a positive test?
Most US athletes are not vegetarian.
So why haven't the other 300 million Americans who eat beef tested positive? If it is true, every American athlete who isn't a vegetarian would test positive. I call Bull Crap.
Switch to Mexican beef. Oh, wait...Chinese beef?

Good question whether Lipsey should get the record or not. She might not have been tested since she didn't appear to be setting a record. Would that disqualify her? Also, she probably ate the same beef that Ajee did. The whole convoluted system is something of a joke.
Because the other 300million people aren't runners, therefore they won't be tested. I think people need to do their research and get there facts straight before making such statements on an athlete. I'm sure none of you are doctors or scientist that are educated on the subject. "If ya don't have nothing nice to say, don't say it at all". I'm pretty sure everyone's parents taught them that.

Bull crap is what you're eating. What do you think happens to the growth hormones they feed cattle? And the antibiotics? And the herbicides & pesticides they ingest? Go get yourself tested & see.

Because most of the other 300 million Americans are never tested for zeranol or any other drugs? She's a professional athlete so she gets drug tested.
Presumably, not all beef in the US has zeranol at levels that would cause a positive test or other athletes would test positive. USADA's finding is apparently that Wilson got some tainted beef that had unusually high levels of zeranol. How or why that would happen is not explained. Apparently, it is implanted as a pellet into the cow:
http://www.depts.ttu.edu/afs/implantdb/dbhome/Revalor%20Tech%20Bulletin%2012.pdfIDK, but perhaps she ate a cut of meat that still contained residue from the pellet.

Mainly because the other 300 million Americans are not being drug tested. Even restricting it to the athletes, not every athlete eats beef. Even among beef eating athletes, not every one eats beef everyday.

Why? Because the amount she tested positive for is tiny - we're talking parts per billion.
The drug is implanted under cattle's ear. What after that cow is slaugthered, another cow ate that ear? Then the new cow would have a higher percentage than normal.
Googling around about this stuff is scary as hell. Want to know why cancer rates are so high in the US? It sounds like it's because of all the damn hormones they are putting in the cows to get an extra $80 out of each one.

She's not being punished.....but her record doesn't count? Is zeranol (or any drug) even effective if taken by eating the flesh of an animal originally injected with said drug(s)?
Makes ZERO sense.
Can somebody who has knowledge of these things please explain how Zeranol is performance enhancing?
Under WADA's list of prohibited substances, It is listed under:
S1. Anabolic Agents- 2. Other Anabolic Agents
This is as opposed to S1. Category 1 which is Anabolic Androgenic Agents.
The wikipedia article for Zeranol says that it is a sythetic non-steroidal estrogen, and based on that I'm not sure how it would be performance-enhancing.
Also I'm pretty sure someone mentioned that its banned in the US for livestock use. It is not.

Legal in US livestock. Banned in the EU.

Clearly this says more about food standards in the United States than it does about PEDs. Zeranol is banned in livestock in the EU, and probably for good reason. Clearly she is being tested quite often and in this case, that record (clean the week before) and her wisdom to keep receipts benefited her. Truly a classy athlete doing things the right way. I wish her nothing but the best.

Why go after the "agri lobby"?
They don't give a F@#% about track and field.
BTW, zeranol... banned in the EU.
Mad Cow Disease... started in the EU.
just sayin'
I'm laughing...
Your body naturally produces 1000x more andro/estrogenic hormones than you could ever get from consuming meat. You guys sound like Alex Jones.
