On the contrary, Kenya has more talent than the rest of the world put together. There will never be no Kenyans contending and winning. My hope is that when this is over, foreign actors start getting banned from Kenya. All this started with them, believe me.

So the whites should leave your sh!thole country? That sounds pretty racist!

Ja, in Africa, everything is always the white man's fault.

Yes, nothing to see here, we already established that, rek.

Not the real rekrunner but a satirist. Not bad, either.

And not the first either. Rek is as comical as predictable.

Ask yourself why people like Stablemaster, even while celebrating this, don’t want to leave. If I was a Kenyan athlete, I’d avoid them like the plague, and it’s time someone started advising the young guys to.

b) rememberRollins running away in the airport from the tester?

Wait, what? Can someone provide a link to this. I don't remember this at all.

This story about Mo Farah is 6 years late

If the testers themselves are allowed to take PEDs then maybe they would have a chance in chasing down unwilling athletes ....

Then would we need testers to test the testers? ? ?

Possibly. Although we can't be surprised when it comes to these types in general, unfortunately.

Just something letsrun must push, before the podium at the Olympics they should plug the athletes to a lie detector. Then we have the right people at the podium.

The only solution is to create a serious investigation with special secret agents like when you want discover a cocaine trafficking , that sort of investigation level, with mobile phone monitored by police.

This is the only solution and you will see that things will start to change in better.

Thats what they used to do in cycling, in some big doping operations, like Tour 98 when they found Festina team cars full of peds ( by the way in that Tour won by Pantani after years with better technology they discovered on the frozen blood sample that everybody was on EPO),

or in Giro D' Italia when at night police went to an Hotel where there was a giro d' italia team and people threw all type of peds out of the window. Or operation Puerto and many others.

Nowdays Kenya has about 50 people suspended for doping violations . In this day we have the Kipsans suspension too than Kipteker 1'42" 800 and so on that it's not even more a news cos they are too many.

I dont remember in history any other country with so many athletes suspended for doping violations.

And considering that all of them , except few , are distance runners the thing is even more big.

I don't know what you are using but in cycle it is still a very big problem, it didn't solve anything. All the pro teams have a doctor working for them why? Because they are always sick, or on the juice.

In my country there is a young man who is the best in off-road cycling wr, mountain bike wr and goes to the road and wins a big race. Like a very good pro said He plays with all the cycling rules.

I believe in miracles, but not in supremacy in sport. Like the rest has less talent or does not train as hard, with al the coaching and medical help. I do not buy that. No longer naive.

They don't 'avoid them like the plague' because everybody is getting what they want.

The Kenyan athletes are complicit in the huge doping scandal that is embroiling Kenya. They want these people there because they want to dope.

It's not happening to them against their will. They need the dope to win so they need the people to supply the expertise.

This is absolutely hilarious. You couldn’t make something up that would be more comical. Maybe if a potato field was on the other side of the fence.

At least in Kenya they are taking basic steps to stem the tide of systemic doping in their country.

Meanwhile in Ethiopia ... nothing but crickets. The East Germany of Africa continues as if nothing is off.

Races that employ rabbits to encourage fast times should have the rabbits dress as drug testers, and actually run right BEHIND the elite runners for as long as they can hold on. You could have the elite start, and then 5 seconds later, a wave or rabbits dressed as drug-testers take off in hot pursuit. That would make for quite a display, seeing the Kenyan runners desperately trying to hold on to their suicidal pace.

Ironically, many of the older Ethiopian "team" coaches cut their teeth I. The old East German system.

i'm unable to read the article cuz it's blocked, but if they jumped out of a window, i assume they can't confirm who that person was. also, if you were gonna have cheaters in a training camp, why don't you just install some hidden rooms to hide in for these kinds of emergencies? it's common sense.
