We merged three threads together and combined the titles. We changed one of the titles as well as it was started when she had brielfy won the 5000 bronze.
Biggest joke ever. East africans at least are consistantly doped and you kinda know what to expect, but Battocletti basically never competed at this level before, was well beaten at her two diamond leagues this year and now suddenly switched bodies with Gudaf Tsegay or whatever. Clearly her father used some tricks from back in the day
USADA's biggest test is what to do with all the bungs. How many houses can one exec have? Another successful games for American Big Pharma and i'm not talking about Joe Kovacs.

Again, she was 7th at the Tokyo Olympics.
I'm aware of that race. This was another extremely suspicious overperformance, but at least still well off the medals. For the next 2-3 years she kept a low profile (didn't even medal at Europeans 2022 or European Indoors 2023) and now she suddenly is a world beater. Makes zero sense, even progression-wise
Not true. One person wrote it on this site Two months ago, and from that day everybody reports this news. But nobody checked and noticed that he was totally cleared.
Womens 5k went thru 4k in 11.54 and womens 10k thru 9k in 28.02, both relatively even paced to that point. That hugely neutralizes the East African advantage if the while thing is run at say 14.20 or 29.30 pace. I suspect battacletti may be a one in a generation Italian woman talent. Body type is just made for these events. None of that rules out doping possibility.

Lemme guess. Did he eat uncastrated chicken?
Her dad having a doping accusation that he was cleared of 25 years ago is hardly dispositive of anything having to do with her.
guys, she already was the top european runner in her juniors. and was seventh or so in the last olympics. just because to americans it seems like it, she definitely does not come from out of nowhere and has steadely been improving over the years.
