Trevor Painter's coaching team is getting a bit of a reputation now with 2 Olympic medallists in their camp now.
Oh they are getting a reputation, and not a good one. Try and be less obvious about your doping.
The coaching duo is Trevor Painter and his wife / former athlete Jenny Meadows. Jenny ran against Russian and Ukrainian dopers and was outspoken against them, but you’re free to an opinion, of course.
Re: Bell.

Despite her track success, Bell hasn’t abandoned the cycling as she maintains a rigorous weekly mileage, crediting it with helping her stay injury free.
“In an Olympic year, you have to put all your eggs in that basket if you want to make Paris but in the future I will go back to doing duathlons,” says Bell. “It’s still very much part of my life, I cycle 100 miles a week and it’s part of my training and always will be.
“Cycling is a way that I can get hours of endurance cardio in without having an impact on my body.
“I came from a place where I was running so many miles and I got so many stress fractures and was constantly trying to come back from injury. But now I’m cycling, I’ve had four years of not being injured so it has made me injury free but also fitter.”
quincy hall not listed for 4x4. did he injure himself winning that gold?
He interviewed with Eurosport following the race and said he'd felt something in the back of his leg in the race, but powered through because "that was my last race".
Muir lost a medal there by going out so slow. She had to expend so much energy getting back in touch with the pack. Still an awesome run for her
She didn't waste any energy.
She went at exactly the pace she planned, smashed her PB and was 20 metres from a medal. She didn't have to accelerate to catch up, she just stayed steady and waited for them to drop back to her.
Thats exactly what see said in her BBC interview. she's happy.
