You will earn my respect when you pay back your ill-gotten prize money and not a second sooner.

I came third to Hesch in a road mile and won $500... second place was $700....$200 would have gone a long way for me at that point in time....

'Also, I wonder what God thinks of him now? He's pretty religious, and not just in name'

Like 99% of peope who claim to be religious he obviously does not really believe in it

Intoduce a life ban and I'm all for forgiveness

Christian I find this crazy since you were so hard on Mo Trafeh for doping (posting a picture about him when he dropped from the Olympic Trials marathon saying something about doping and dropping out) yet Mo had no positives or anything (just stating that fact).

This isn't coming from a negative place, I've always been a big fan of yours because you were a character in a sport that lacked characters and were cool enough to post on here about racing and so on, but what was your thought process when you bag on others about doping yet dope?

Christian never tested positive just like Mo Trafeh never did. The difference is Christian admitted came clean himself.

Exactly Pete. When I read his P.S. my first thought was here is a guy continuing to hide stuff in order to obtain a lighter ban. Sounds like continuing to cover up info in order to bury the real story.Pretty sick.

This is a pretty one-sided discussion.

Must.. not.. troll.

Please, read the runnersworld story on the sequence of events and what he told or didn't tell people at different times. His "coming clean" is a last desperate attempt to bargain for a reduced suspension.

It's exactly the sort of apology you get from a 2 year old with chocolate smeared all over their face.

Of course I hate it when people cheat.

What REALLY turned my stomach was evidence from the RW article about how 'christian' clearly is trying to play the part of a repentant, small time user to get a lighter ban from USADA. Not only is he a fake runner, he's a fake confessor.

String him high! (he's always liked the attention)

spot on coach.

(he's probably part of the Religious Right(eous) )

Not true.His teammate took the photos of the 400 IU viles of Bioyetin (label was in Spanish) and a written reference on how to take them with HGH. That evening they notified me and one other friend, & I told them to bring it up immediately with their club's officers to decide the best way to deal with it. Christian kept racing for a bit and this wasn't working for anyone in the club and this friend, so the next step was bringing it to the attention of USADA and to make sure the 'Running Times' article (which is more damming) was authored by Scott Douglas.The Competitor & NYT articles seem a little pre-emptive. The threat of being busted was pretty immminent before he admitted to anything, ad admission which was probably meant (in part) to soften the blow.

Hesch would make a good Republican congressman someday. He's clearly a moron, has a knack for flashy self promotion and half-as\sed apologies. OK, he's poor as dirt but maybe he can find a SoCal billionaire to bankroll him.

Another CH being an ass story:

The race director paid the dinner/bar tab of everyone after the race and Hesch orders two meals and takes one to go.

Christian Hesch giving Jason Richardson a hard time about Mark Block on Twitter:

Why did he run in basketball shorts? That was suspicious to begin with...
