In reply to Roadrunner5:
>The fact that they regularly test their runners blood making sure it comes up clean is all you need to know..
I don't know about that. After what happened to Diane Modahl, if I were a world-class distance runner arranging my own regular blood tests would be one the very first things I'd do.
In reply to the OP: seemed fair enough to me. People bought tickets to see lots of athletes, not just MF. He presumably loses money too.
