Athletes who use performance enhancing substances can be the reason of sports downfall. I'm not interested at all what's the new world record in any event, if in the back of my head there is uncertainty is it a sport world record, or chemistry world record.
Running has been an enhanced sport for many decades. The first 2 modern marathons were won in 1896 with times of 03:18 and 03:11 and later that year world record was set at 02:58:50. The first official world record is 02:55 from 1908.
The punishments need to be harsher. All bans should be subject to details of the cheating being released before the athlete is ever allowed back. For example a runner is given 2 years for a positive results for steroids. If that athlete hasn't not only confessed to the offense and detailed how and when the cheating occurred then they stay on the banned list until such time as that information is released by that athlete. An athlete themself is not the only party in the cheating and until the dealers and manufacturers get taken down then sports won't be clean.
She gets tested more than anyone. She's been incredible for years, and doesn't have that doping career trajectory. That earlier mile record wasn't particularly strong.
That 5 seconds was nothing, that mile should always been faster than that 4:12, Hassan just didn’t pace it evenly and 3:49 1500m translates to 4:06 anyway
I found the results of the Tokyo marathon this year alone highly suspicious. There’s way too many completely unknown athletes suddenly popping up right at the very front of those races and they run record times as if it’s nothing. Even athletes like Eliud Kipchoge and Sifan Hassan started out as middle distance champs. Those new faces debut a marathon with no international race experience to boot and so many of them run sub 2:06 marathons? Give me a break. Running is evolving into another sport that is as, if not dirtier than cycling.
Yes, TRP. I agree. The whole issue of PED's is very sad. I've always wondered about the Other End of the Drugs existence. I mean, how many Labs are creating/distilling the actual drugs? Surely tracking the source would be easier than attempting to track the athlete users? Many of those drugs have extremely limited uses and the "ingrediants" used must be able to be traced. Obviously I have NIL medical knowledge but you can't exactly go into a pharmacy somewhere and order those specialist drugs. So attacking the drug suppliers and manufacturers might have a better and harder impact.
For the most part, PEDs are actually legally prescribed medication that was developed to treat genuine medical cases, and many over-the-counter painkillers, cold & flu meds, and other non-prescription drugs are actually banned & screened for in professional sport. Keep in mind that most of these drugs are designed to assist the body in performing "normally"... it's their use in an otherwise healthy, normal body that creates the desired "performance enhancement." For example, a guy with low testosterone following chemotherapy may be prescribed drugs to "top up" his natural hormone production while he recovers. That same drug used by a guy with normal testosterone levels becomes "performance enhancing" because he's exceeding his natural production levels to garner all the benefits of high testosterone... increased stamina, strength, endurance, etc. So while there's definitely a grey industry in finding new & exotic PED compounds that aren't detectable in sports drug tests, for the most part these are drugs co-opted by doping organisations rather than manufactured specifically for them.
A quick comment on synthetic EPO. Synthetic EPO isn’t that hard to test for, I assume due to its slight difference in structure. Considering that high EPO levels don’t prove that an athlete is doping, it’s possible that there’s another way to synthesize it that’s harder to track.
cheating has been around since the beginning of time there will always be athletes trying to gain an advantage and some will get caught and some wont. Its cat an mouse with the regulators as they find new ways to detect and the athletes find new ways to cheat.
Just keep logging your data in your notebook, make progress, and learn as much as you can about yourself and the art of running. Cheaters learned to cheat.
For a moment, i thought a Kenyan athlete had been caught out. This is a joke, this fan base deserves better!.This waters down the incredible information that you were giving out.
I think many of us athletics fans are delusional toward the pursuit of a 'clean sport', because we love the sport, and we want to send the right message to the kids getting into the sport. But the reality is, there seems to be more money in dodging tests and winning medals than there is in solving the doping problem. Additionally, elite athletes will do whatever it takes to win, and whatever it takes REALLY means whatever it takes, including bending or breaking the rules if necessary. No pun intended, but without going the extra mile, many of these athletes and coaches won't make it so they do what they have to do.
explain this shelly ann fraser running her personal best at 34yrs old at 10.60 when she couldn't get below 10.70 in her twenties something don't look right!!
In Kenya with so much competition to even get selected I can understand why doping is so prevalent. Life can be quite hard in these countries to get ahead and out of poverty etc. You make it in athletics your life is made in Kenya with all the prizemoney sponsorship deals etc etc. Big incentive to dope.
@@veganpottertheveganno Usain bolt never took PEDs he just ate jerk chicken and yams and also McNuggets that’s the secret. If the other athletes eat these foods they’ll break his records.
X Games is the answer to the hypocrisy. Should they stop using peds, the results would be slightly higher than the preWW2 era. Without peds, they can't train at the professional level and recover fast enough, let alone avoid injuries from overtraining, or progress. Metabolism and its aspects need to be amplified. Read Rodchenkov's book and watch the movie Icarus. Plus, documentaries and podcasts of Lance Armstrong
We should all note, as was here, that records and breakout performances tend to run by nation. Nations break out. That’s because national governing bodies control PED testing, adjudication, and enforcement. So let’s say the world is mostly clean (😂) except for one country. That country would clean up, and not just in track & field, but pretty much everything from weight lifting to archery. Why? Because the revolution in chemistry and bio sciences have contributed designer substances that provide a major advantage in virtually every sport. Well, in every sport. Name one where you think it does not and I’ll tell you what they’re using and you’ll have to pick your jaw up off the floor. When speaking about the subject, as a humorous aside when challenging the audience I would mention that equestrian might be a good answer, but then the horses are doped. And of course that has been true of equine competitions of all kinds for decades. So not only can chemists come up with increasingly specific advantages, say, in reaction times to a gun for sprint sports (yes…) but also those same chemists can dodge increasingly sophisticated testing regimes which always lag ergogenic chemistry. Back to my original point, you see NATIONS doing well because they control testing, adjudication, and enforcement. Russia got dinged because they were so egregious about it, so Russian, as it were… And although Russians tend to think the world is out to get them, in fact their own internal problems cause them to fall under the spotlight. For example, their athletic culture is one where various clubs and coaches tend to pull each other down (Russian-on-Russian), causing more athletes to whistle-blow about doping. More “loyal” athletic cultures, more loyalty to their national teams (or more coercive internal methods), tend not to tattle. And once records are set, it’s basically not in anyone’s interests, not national or international governing bodies, to undermine the sport by revealing doping. I’m not excusing any of it, just trying to explain it so fans can understand how complex and essentially human the whole situation can be… 😢
But what about biological passports? EPO and its derivatives lead to the creation of more new blood cells. This proportion changes from a non-EPO doping to a doping athlete. Even though the test doesn't pick up EPO (Half life is 4hrs or something so is out of ones system pretty quick regardless), one should be able to pick up this dramatic change in blood values?
"This is the seventh week in a row you've used Kenya for negative promotion in class" Can we please attempt to promote things in a more neural light instead of trying to use it to soft accuse certain regions?
When you're competing against other freak athletes, a slight edge is significant. But I think we need to blame the system for pushing athletes into it rather than blaming the individuals for their "moral failures". It's like shaming a diabetic person for loading up their cart with junk food at the grocery store without considering the fact that those foods are cheap, and advertisers know how to entice buyers to purchase their product. It's a complicated issue, and when your livelihood depends on your performance, then it makes sense that you would be susceptible to relying on PEDs.
Drug testing is stupid. Just have docs monitor health. I hate clean sports. Reminds me of middle school girls basketball. Final score 8 to 11. All the winners are dirty, but if not caught, they are legends. If caught, cheater. Same guy, same result. Different info. All your favorite "natties" are dirty.
In the 80's breaking 2:09 in the marathon was an extremely rare occurrence. Nowadays that won't get you even close to making an Olympic team. It's all in the shoes? I don't think so.
Each generation naturally gets faster too, really a human is the mashup of the "perfect" genetics from your parents, so for example if Eliud was to have a kid, that child could have just as much, if not more aerobic capacity than Eluid had. Now I'm not dismissing the fact PED's have been used too, I wouldn't doubt it, but it isn't all that, and plus, shoe technology has also evolved to aid with the faster times.
@@starryypop the fact that times have drastically improved in recent years leaves me highly suspicious that highly undetectable PED's have a lot to do with it. I mean look at the women's marathon record. That is ridiculous!
Yep, in 1988 Ben Johnson ran the 100m final in 9.79s.. so draw your own conclusions about todays times. Shoes certainly shave off a few minutes in the marathon, but.. yeah, suspicion is warranted.
I know this is gonna sound ignorant, but there is no way any organization can test with 100% certainty, so why bother. We should just assume everyone is dirty. This way, when professional athletes toe the line fans of the sport won't have to guess they will just know that they are all doping. Sort of like professional bodybuilding.
I mean all modern day pro runners use PEDs, some are just unfortunate to get caught. If we assume that all world records are clean, then it means that when some professional marathoner will use PEDs they will beat these records. I highly doubt that antidoping screening works so well as to not to allow it to happen at least once in history. If all current records are natural, we could expect some talented pro athletes using PEDs frequently beating them by a significant margin, which is not the case.
Wow, so they were almost relegated from international competition in 2022? They promised to clean up their act, and were allowed to compete. In 2023, 27 Kenyon T&F athletes were suspended - guess those runners didn't get the memo. Shut the country out of Olympics, WCs and Continental Champs, PERIOD!
Most of those you showed in the video were bans for 'whereabouts' failures, not positive drug tests. Its a 'cat-&-mouse' game. It'll always be the doper's chemists keeping one step ahead of the testing ability. Change a structural part of a molecule that doesn't have any relevance to improving the physiology of a runner, but its the 'marker' part of the molecule that the test finds, and you'll pass the testing protocol.
@@Normandy1944 ya my point is that technically they aren’t allowed in any sport but some they don’t test. But in every sport that they can give you an advantage most will take them especially if there is tons of money involved
Don’t you know usain bolt was natural, he broke the world record because he ate jerk chicken, yams and McNuggets. That’s the winning formula. If the other athletes do this they’ll dominate and break records 😂.
when one of the biggest marathons in the world (Valencia) offers 1 million euros reward for a new world record, it's basically an invitation to doping. Problem is not the athletes "integrity", it's the money poured into the sport and poorly shared among athletes.
Masking agents offer a temporary advantage until testing technology captures. Sadly, banned performqnce enhancers will always exist in sports (too much $$$). What did Jime Rome say? “If you aren’t cheating, you aren’t trying, and it’s only cheating if you are caught.”

when one of the biggest marathons in the world (Valencia) offers 1 million euros reward for a new world record, it's basically an invitation to doping. Problem is not the athletes "integrity", it's the money poured into the sport and poorly shared among athletes.
Masking agents offer a temporary advantage until testing technology captures. Sadly, banned performqnce enhancers will always exist in sports (too much $$$). What did Jime Rome say? “If you aren’t cheating, you aren’t trying, and it’s only cheating if you are caught.”
That shade to Amusan haha. No coz we all know somethings up with her but no one wants to admit it
why are you always targeting africans....while Norwegians and dutch athletes are doping
@fin2-em2mf lol. Not all Africans. Just Kenya and Nigeria have a long past of doping and probably the highest number of athletes doping. Lol. And with all the controversy surrounding Amusan, it's kinda sus.
Slight edge..... I now know you know nothing what you are talking about....
Innocent until proven guilty./
Everyone knows all the Kenyans dope😂
even norwegians , dutch and american athletes...are all doping....but they will not get caught because they are not african
Change the topic of your video no news there
Africans are always targeted in these things, there's a lot of politics in this. I haven't seen a video of an American, British, French, Australian, Norwegian, etc. NATO countries Never use PEDs but they perform, it's only Africa and Russia 😂
Literally the entire video contains clips of Mo Katir
I’m sure you have data to back up this claim 🤡
@@showdown66 even with african female athletes like caster semenya....yet you had athletes like Brittany Reese, Anita Woldachyck, Nikki hillz who are clearly men, but are allowed to compete with women.... 🤡
@@showdown66 ikr, there have been dozens of American and British athletes caught using, and many more suspected of it in the last 20 years alone. To claim otherwise is absolute nonsense.
Off the top of my head, Britain was stripped of the 2020 Olympic silver in the 4x100m. Lance Armstrong was very famously and publicly stripped of 7 Tour de France titles. Marion Jones was stripped of a bunch of medals.. its a long list!
PED's should be legal and let's see who is really the fastest.... It works in bodybuilding!
I mean all modern day pro runners use PEDs, some are just unfortunate to get caught. If we assume that all world records are clean, then it means that when some professional marathoner will use PEDs they will beat these records. I highly doubt that antidoping screening works so well as to not to allow it to happen at least once in history. If all current records are natural, we could expect some talented pro athletes using PEDs frequently beating them by a significant margin, which is not the case.
Can we, as intelegent people, simply not agree that all top tier atheletes are useing. With the millions of dollars at stake... come on, look how long Lance Armstrong had everyone fooled. Its like the bodybuilding federation saying they are going to crack down on drugs. There is simply too much money in sport. Atheletes in Athletics, Football, Hockey, Baseball even golf use PEDs to reach the highest levels and make millions of dollars. I'd hazzard a guess that there isnt a clean track record on the books for many, many decades.
