You poor thing. I pity you.
Jearl-Miles doping? - Please do better than this gossip! This is irresponsible and hurtful for our sport.
Very well stated!
This athlete ran a 2 flat relay leg at 15 and her progression through the years has been consistent so 1.55 8 years later is really not a stretch. That was a remarkable and entertaining race which gave fans value for money, and is actually a plus for our sport. Those responsible for arbitrating the sport did their jobs and found her not guilty and that's good enough for me, especially when put in the context of her track record.

She wasn't 3rd. She was first while being paced by two guys.
Niyonsaba doesn't even remotely look like a dude.
Contador used the same defense as Ajee Wilson and in the end was stripped of his 2010 TDF victory and all results for the next two years plus banned for a short period of time... I propose the same punishment for Ajee

I agree, the Niyonsaba situation comes across as pretty racist here. She is black and not an example of western beauty (bless her) so is put in the same category as Semenya unfairly.
AJ Wilson was caught doping. It's a fact. And with some poor excuse she was let go. Seriously, tainted beef????? Yes, be proud of your dirty American Record. Would this be an African or anyone else in the world, there would be pages and pages of how such a scandal hurts the sport and so on. And rightly so. It doesn't and SHOULDN'T matter the atlhete's nationailty. Unfortunately, Letsrun is a double standards website, so since it's an american, she gets the blue homepage or black homepage or what the heck they do for big achievements.

Ajee is the one of the purest this sport has. I know her personally and professionally, and she is nothing but legitimate. Not to mention a total class act.
Congrats Ajee on a great race. You deserve everything coming your way.

Period. We saw the same on the men's side with the lame "passionate kissing" defense working for Gil Roberts. Like a guy wrote at the TAFNews board (those cucks have probably removed his post by now) the whole thing is a joke between CAS and tainted meat.
Really sad. Caster Semenya, Francine Niyonsaba and Margaret Wambui have never failed drug tests, yet they get the bulk of abuse here. If Ajee Wilson, was South African, Burundian or Kenyan, with no powerful entity to back her up, she'd be exiled from the sport, probably for good.
The implication is, to state the obvious, that the three mentioned above are intersex athletes. We know one is but other two look very masculine but I simply don't know. But you are correct if a Moroccan, Kenyan, actually any African, Russian, Ukrainian, or Chinese athlete got away like Wilson did we would all be howling.
Elite athletes are as pure as the driven snow. Anyone suggesting otherwise is suffering from delusion / psychological illnesses / ignorance / jealousy or has some agenda / axe to grind.
Every single one of them needs to be given the benefit of the doubt, and aspersions need to be muted, even if they test positive.
This is another example of why collegiate running is pointless
try 95% ! almost all top athletes take cocktails of drugs.and ajay isnt clean.no american athlete at top or second tier leval is.usa is worse than russia when it comes to drugs in sports.that race was basically some doped women vs women with intersex conditions.

There was nothing to get away with.

Decker did have the natural talent to run that kind of time if she had stayed natural and run the 800 and 1500 as specialties because that is the way she ran naturally.

The rules of the game. Look at the era. If one was doing it and getting away with it then it is likely that they all were. People have to put bread in their mouths.

Man what a classic statement. Our sport is rotten to the core, anyone who doubts that must live perpetually in a Benny Hill show.

Why don't you guys just stop it already? The "drug result" was explained. If you're going to believe absolutely nothing in this sport, why do you even follow it?
Shouldn't the quotes be around "explained" rather than drug result?

You would steal if you could get away with it.

Can anyone explain why it's just accepted that Niyonsaba is intersex? She looks feminine to me and isn't especially muscular.
