You Can Run But You Can't Hide Malmo - More And More People Know The Truth About You

You are obviously trying hard to be a dikc and congratulations you have succeeded.

My point is that so called 'performance enhancing drugs' are a pyschological prop for atheltes.

There I've spelled it out for you in simple terms. Is that clear enough?

Psychological prop is only part of the benefit. It is not the sole benefit. 'Performance enhancing drugs' are not placebos.

I don't buy the placebo argument. There might be some effect in that regard but PEDs obviously do more than that. And the subject of this thread should know that, even though the effects did not seem to work on him.

Could be several reasons for this. Dose levels needed to be tweaked; wasn't on it long enough; at the end of his career anyway, and such (maybe some before and after testing with a 5K or something would have been more telling than not "feeling" its effect); feeling a bit guilty (negativity/stress can affect one's performance as much or more than the enhancement of the supplement, if you follow).

It would appear that A Duck had some issues with Dellinger.

The references to Bob Sevene were more interesting.

Here's a bit more web crap for the thread.

Malmo, are you saving the reveal of BM and SK for your tell-all?

Malmo's 1985 training logs are available on the web. You can read them and draw your own conclusions.

I drew the conclusion that malmo was one of the more honest and reliable commentators on this here letsrun.com. Much more so than the journalists who run this website.

Have you ever noticed how, if you ask malmo a question, either stupid or serious, you will get a reply? Try asking rojo a serious question, he don't got the quts to reply under his own name.

After all of these years? huh? Try back in 1989 (that's 24 years ago) when track writer Jim Ferstile approached me about the AW shenanigans. I told him that I don't have the smoking gun but I could give him a blueprint, a summary and time-line and the names of the people he needed to interview, which ones would cooperate, which ones won't, and what kinds of questions to ask, what information I have that I know to be true, which info I think to be true, which info I think not to be true, and which I know not to be true,

Waiting ~9 years, or however long it was, is a fairly long time to start trying to clean up the sport...

Did anyone get bans/etc from the information you provided?

I couldn't find any articles published by Jim Ferstle or anything suggesting suspicion about AW et al in his blogs about doping:

malmo - somebody posted a link earlier to the Canadian TV documentary about Ben Johnson that has a little segment devoted to Athletics West. It claims that detailed handouts about steroids were given to Athletics West runners, explaining how to use steroids, how to avoid detection, specific programs, etc. The narrator suggests that Athletics West at the time was not necessarily encouraging their athletes to use steroids, but were putting the information out there for anyone who was interested - I think the term "enabler" was used.

It is further suggested that there might have been two camps within AW: Bob Sevene being against steroids, and Dick Brown being pro-steroids. In the interviews, Dick Brown doesn't seem to try to dispel the notion that he was in favor of steroid use.

I'm wondering if you found this part of the documentary to be accurate as far as your experience with AW. Were you ever given a steroid info pack (I'm assuming not, as it seems like something you would have mentioned in your recollection about your stint on steroids)? Were you aware of such a handout? Does the depiction of Bob Sevene vs Dick Brown seem fair to you?

The video can be found at

. The part about AW is somewhere around 22-27 minutes in.

Thanks.

Thanks - that was the link I used to view the video yesterday, but I couldn't find your post when I looked for it today. Anyway, good link.

George do believe that A Duck actually ran for Oregon?

Hey! Wait a second! There was a dude in a jet pack at the 1984 Olympics' opening ceremony?!

malmo got another question for you sir. Has A Duck contacted you personally via the email address (you somewhat provided)?

Sorry, but I don't answer every question that's stupid. Sometimes I answer stupid questions, which makes me feel stupid when I do. If I ever answered every stupid question from demanding children, not only would I feel really stupid, it would make me insane.

No he hasn't. ... and he won't. Hell is in no danger of freezing over.

I may have missed this, but have you ever talked about testing in regard to your experiences during the three months or as it applied, or not, to AW generally during that time?
