No EPO in the '80s. There was blood doping, but there is no evidence that any U.S. runners ever did that (although it seems like something that Al "Vampire" Salazar would jump at).
EPO was used in the late '80s. and before that there was not only blood doping.
and even long before that they tried all kind of things.
doping isn't something new, really.

Blah, blah, blah...
You can keep talking but Wanders will continue ta train, race and win. He's clean.
He does not seem to win a lot of races.
He is obviously good and improving, but the fact that he runs faster on the road than on the track is telling. He is benefiting from shoes/ultra fast road races to get his PR. Wake me up when he is a factor on the track.
Not sure how much his heart is in running track.
Doesn't seem as passionate about it as roads.
As far as fast shoes and ultra fast races, guys like Mosinet Geremew and Ozbilen had those same advantages in the same races but they cannot run faster than Wanders. He does win often or end up on podium. Most definitely a factor on the roads.

well, maybe not big ones. but just recently he beat Telahun Bekele, who ran 5'000m in 12:52 last year.

he won't. 10k is simply too short for him. and after tokyo he most likely will focus on longer distances.
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
