There is a cloud of suspicion around Coe only.
We can reasonably surmise that both morcelli and Guerrouj were doped between 91-2004 because the majority of these north africans were subsequently busted and have been shown to be inveterate dopers .
Then we had ramzi busted
If kiprop goes down that's pretty much every 1500 champion for the last 25 years presumed drugged
bingo. nailed it.

really? Rosa tied them to a post and injected them with EPO and told if they'd talk to anyone, he'll go after their families????
Bullshit. They're all in it. The athletes more so because nobody forces them.
But why just that stable?
Demand and supply.
Sometimes people want something, but they don't have access to it, so they'll never get it.
Sometimes people offer stuff, but nobody wants it, so they never give it to anyone.
And sometimes, people want stuff, and opportunity presents itself where they have access and so they'll get it. That's probably what's going on with Rosa. He probably has access to illegal substances, and his athletes want it.
It's not rocket science. Why do junkies always find a dealer? Similar concept here, athletes pick the camp they want to train in. I guess Rosa's reputation precedes him ...
Gotta wonder about Manangoi and Cheriouyot as well....
Who even does EPO anymore? That’s your grandpa’s dope.
Let's wait but if confirmed it would rank alongside the (strange) Ngugi affair...

I am truly devastated. I genuinely admired this guy.
Admired him? It’s common knowledge that he has drunkenly assaulted people in the past while brandishing a gun. Not exactly a Kipchoge-style monk.
But he was beautiful to watch on the track. You never knew what you’d get, but when he delivered, he did so spectacularly. All those memories down the drain.

Well, they basically still can't detect it.

They developed a test for EPO at the turn of the millennium. Nobody in countries with comprehensive out of competition testing can use it in more than micro doses these days.

Kiprop
If it's Kiprop wouldn't they mention that it's an Olympic Champion, or do Kenyans not really like to brag about his post facto Olympic triumph?
If it is Kiprop then let's just finally admit that Ovett, Coe, and Cram were the GOATS.
Nobody could ever take Kenyan middle-distance running seriously again, just as most rational fair people can't take Moroccan performances seriously.
Whoever it is, Kenya needs to be suspended for at least one Olympic cycle.
Would be tragic for genuine Kenyan track fans to have to accept that even with a population of 70 million devoted to distance running, they still can't come close to pasty white boys running clean 40 years ago.
Damn, it must really be painful to watch these black folk dominate track and field, a white sport! I feel you bro. On behalf of fellow Kenyans, I'd say blame it on globalization and economics. Otherwise we'd be having our own fun, or, as we call it here in the RV, tumdo/tumin

Well there was Cacho in there but Spain doesn't have any history of funny goings on.
Oh wait a minute...

And even in the unlikely event that El G was clean, he benefitted indirectly from having training partners and even pacemakers who we know for certain were not clean. We can say for sure that his times were at least partly the result of North African cheating, even if he was himself (unlikely) clean.
The last 25 years of middle-distance running has been a sham. The victims are the few elite runners who were likely clean, as well as the fans of the sport.
Rosa is doing a lousy job of educating his athletes about masking agents.
everybody represented by Rosa

Kisorio, Jeptoo, Sumgong now Kiprop. That’s only all of the high profile caught Kenyan dopers. How is he not in jail?
DOWN goes El Keniano's ego!!!!
I'm shocked we're into the 8th page of LRC and no one has concluded that, because Centro beat Kiprop, Centro must be doping. Where are the anti-NOP trolls today?
In all seriousness, when I saw this, my reaction was, 'of course he's doping.'
My second reaction was, 'it's about darn time that Kenya instituted out of competition testing.'
My third reaction was, 'now Kenya will just get more sophisticated in their out of competition doping.' Kinda like we do here in 'merica...
It's a truism that the doped athletes are the gold medal winners and that doping works .
Do we seriously believe Geb and Bekele were clean?

Yes they were clean. And you do realise that if Dennis is catched then Bekele will technically literally own the world records for 2k, 5, 10k and the marathon

Most smart and elites know they are doped.
