Is everyone by the name Smith or Andrews or McCoy related?Are all Adams related or when it comes to Africans all those with the same names are related?What an ignorant assumption.
Did Bpio make any assumptions or did he just ask some questions?
The number one reason that doping is an individual violation and NOT a state-run operation in Kenya is that if it had been state run they'd have a better National Soccer Team by running down their opponents - but they have never made it Worlds and it's their most popular sport back home so comparatively they should have and that's for starters where corrupt politicians and managers would pour money and drugs if they could to buy popularity - but it hasn't happened yet.
Remember that Spain won the Soccer World Cup in 2010 and Euro Champs in 2008 and 2012 in big style by running like horny rabbits for 90 minutes - and then after the national doping scandal were a judge ordered names to remain hidden for matters of national pride and security etc etc etc blablabla they suddenly dropped back to their normal leveling at around ranked number ten in the World.
“"Everybody wants to know what I'm on," Armstrong says. "What am I on? I'm on my bike, bustin' my ass six hours a day. What are you on?"
“"Everybody wants to know what I'm on," Kiptum says. "What am I on? I'm on my feet, bustin' my ass 300km a week. What are you on?"
"Ebreebodee whant too knho what I ahm ohn, "Kiptum says. "What I ahm ohn? I ohn mee fheet, boustin' mee ass tree hoondred keelohmeeter's ay wheek. What yhoo are ohn?"
Not sure about that, we cant says he's had any crazy sudden improvements. He's never had a bad marathon. He may be a doper but I cant say he is the most obvious one ever.
Take the shoes and "201" marathons out of the picture. Name another time in history when an athlete with ANY background that has come in and immediately run three WR quality marathons as their first 3 marathons?
I mean this genuinely, because I've had a go at thinking on it and I can't think of another example. Kipchoge is actually the closest, but yea, he at least has a long background, and it could be argued the first three weren't of the same caliber as KK's, adjusting for the time period of course.
It takes some real twisty logic to think that the top runners are clean (or any top athlete of their respective sports).

I got news for you, we are all actually related. Even you and I. The question is, how many generations back? Surnames in many cultures are passed down and having the same last name does move that common ancestor forward.
Arguing this point does not change the fact the running world has a serious drug problem and all top athletes must be suspect.
“Wiggins was prescribed Triamcinolone acetonide (Kenacort), which is a known as a corticosteroid hormone (glucocorticoid). It works by decreasing the body's immune response to these diseases and reduces symptoms such as swelling. This is given by injecting into different locations such as a muscle or joint. South African exercise physiologist Dr. Jeroen Swart recently stated in an interview "The benefits of corticosteroids are documented. Not only in peer-reviewed scientific manuscripts that have demonstrated statistically-significant performance enhancing effects of corticosteroids in endurance sport." "We have also got the testimony from a large number of riders, ex professionals. David Millar’s testimony in his book. Armstrong admitted to the use of corticosteroids." “David Millar recently shared his experience of Kenacort (asking for it to be banned “You would do all the training but my weight would stick,” he said, referencing his own use of EPO and testosterone patches. “But if I took Kenacort, 1.5-2kgs would drop off in like a week. And not only would the weight drop off I would feel stronger.”
Whaaaaat? Why didn't the picture show a needle and Kenacort rather than a Ventolin inhaler? Totally misleading the non readers.
The article says inhaled "Ventolin it’s not going to give you any advantage", the issue is with injected supertherapeutic doses of Kenacort. Kenacort has a half life of 36hrs compared to Ventolins 2-6 hrs, it's long lasting powerful stuff and a real red flag against Wiggins.

With 4 more suspensions just announced alongside otherworldly performances being recorded how could anything in Kenyan sport be trusted? We have long passed that.
By far the most successful distance running nation since decades. Impossible this mainly is the result of doping.

At 37 everybody is past their prime.
If a 37 year old can run 2:01:09, certainly a 23 year old who started with a focus on half-marathons can run half a minute faster. Or even one or two minutes faster.

Yep, it's a real red flag, but more of a grey flag because essentially Wiggins got permission to take it.
Although if you get 'permission' but then use it to cheat, it's still cheating.
