where there's smoke, there is generally fire.
obviously i have no proof beyond what's in the public record. just seems overwhelmingly likely that he's doped, given all the smoke around oregon project, most prominently from the propublica report a couple years ago.
ya but, do these people just keep doping? i mean, you have everyone suspecting you, and you continue to dope? I don't really understand it. If I was doping with so many eyes on me, I imagine i'd be paranoid as fuck about getting caught.. sounds so stressful.
The thing I don't get about Mo, is he's winning double gold's and not dropping ELITE (Bekele-level) numbers. I mean his 5k in Rio was 13:03, psychotic for most but still seems so beatable. Centrowitz wins gold in like, one of the slowest 1500m finals in a long time. And Rupp gets bronze in the marathon, with an "ok" time.
Nice list of 5k times:

10k:

Marathon
http://www.alltime-athletics.com/mmaraok.htmSo if he's doping, what's going on with everyone else? He's always seemed beatable to me but these guys know running way more than I do, so maybe he just knows how to deploy a winning strategy.
As far as those lists go, Bekele & Gebrselassie are absolute god's.. IMHO, Bekele has to be the greatest runner of all time, 5k/10k record and a previous Marathon record. insanity.
insanity. insanity.
anyway back to me.. i dno. I doubted Lance was doping though, so I have a horrible dopedar. I guess I give people the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise, and so that I can just imagine they are clean, because once they aren't clean, I lose pretty much all respect - very fast. It's fine to dope/roid/PED recreationally if you're just a psycho, but not if you're competing in drug tested/clean comps. That's just pure garbage.
