Even more significant with a doped athlete going from bronze to gold. A gold medal at the Olympics is huge in terms of sponsorship, fame, monetary value, etc. Many dopers/doping coaches would probably think the benefit of 2-3 seconds in the 1500 and moving into the medal hunt or moving up in the medals is worth the risk.
Because the outcome of PED use in the real world is always very uncertain, are you here admitting that mere expectation of some 1.0-1.5 % improvement is enough rationale for someone to take rHuEPO/blood dope particularly when the detection window of rHuEPO is so short and the ABP-program so insensitive?
Um, hell to the yeah. A good deal of these busted dopers have done great things and won big races.
