-the claim of taking HGH/Epo until one week before the test. OK, maybe they don't get tested in Ethiopia, but I thought at the marathon majors, at least the winners get tested? And how can one pass such a test if he/she has been doping a week before the race? And I thought most doping was done during early training phase to recover faster from workout and push yourself to the limit, not so close to race day...

Tyler Hamilton's book came out what, 5 years ago? They were taking EPO in a way that was out of their system by 6am if they injected at 10pm. Small doses taken in a specific way every day were impossible to detect.

What I don't know is whether biological passport has made them easier to detect (probably not if used year round) or if the tolerances on the test have gotten better.
