Former World Record Holder in Marathon Wilson Kipsang Provisionally Suspended

Are there any details about the “tampering” accusation? I feel we are owed as much seeing as this is the biggest bust since Kiprop in distance running.

Wilson Kipsang has been busted for whereabouts violation and tampering...

They all are. I constantly wonder if I could have gone sub-10 on drugs, who knows. When I was leg pressing over 1000lbs, I personally saw someone do 2000. Yes he was huge and roided—and yes, he is also now dead, younger than me.

I would never do it because I am paranoid about my health, but it is sure interesting to see where others have taken it. I just wish they had a separate competitive category.

Really, did anybody think that Kipsang WASN’T using? Ditto Kipchoge.

Up with the Citizen Runner!

You still are paranoid. Please tell me how a drug can help you exceed your natural calorimetric limits? Do you even understand the question? I doubt it, maybe one in a million people undersand the question.

It raises the limit, Moran.

Hhhhmmmm

I sincerely hope he retired and forgot to notify the out of competition testers or something. I don't think Kipsang is dumb enough to dope especially at this stage of his career.

^ this, but the "tampering" accusation doesn't sound good to me.

El Keniano stays home devestated, claims Kipsang is third tier.

It's pretty likely he's been doping the entirety of his career.

It's only that the small amount of testing they have in Kenya now has raised the possibility of being caught from absolutely zero to a bit above zero.

So he was probably full throttle juicing forever but recently started to panic while he watched a lot of his friends get hit with bans.

No matter what you guys say, I don't, for one second, believe Wilson Kipsang is a doper. But he has some explaining to do about this whereabouts violation, especially now he's no longer competitive.

Get your head - out your ass

and this is why Kenya should just be banned. Clowns like this will just deny deny deny, but they will keep doing it.

I don’t think so. He won’t get away with it like Christian Coleman. The US should be banned.

Let me slightly modify the words of the great Ricky Gervais - "just because you don't believe it, doesn't mean it isn't true"

He’s no longer competitive, so this is the most likely scenario. No whereabouts violations when he was competing.

I wish we had more information about what the “tampering” actually involved. Using someone else’s urine? Switching the sample cups? Not that it really matters... tampering is tampering.

He’s a smart guy. He’ll hold a press conference and reveal everything.

Wilson ran with my guys on the Moiben Road in January and February 2019. I posted a video of one of the runs on here earlier in the year. It was clear to all of us that Wilson was dirty (I'll explain why later). I'll release the details of the interview soon: I've held back from publishing it because I was waiting for the bust (I knew it was coming). There's more to come on other Kenyan runners too. A certain German fella is here now (Kenya) with a big list of unreleased Kenyan dopers. Get ready for some real journalism...

He has been suspended for antidoping violations.

By definition that makes him a doper. Same with Salazar.

So, I know it won't work like this since 2012 was so long ago, but ... Meb should get another Olympic medal!

Meb's 4th place in 2012 was the first thing that came to mind when I read this. Didn't he say something right after the race about staying motivated through the hard miles at the end by the thought of moving into the medals because of a future doping bust?

This is HUGE. Please, just rip the bandaid off.
