Has Kenya found a new super drug? What is going on?


LRC 2021 BOSTON MARATHON CHAMP DIANA KIPYOKEI SUSPENDED AND HER AGENT DOESN'T
HOLD BACK: "DIANA IS COMPLETELY GUILTY. I AM SORRY."

And have the Kenyans found a new super drug? Kipyokei is one of 10 athletes in
the last two years to test positive for the same substance, triamcinolone
acetonide, a drug once used by Lance Armstrong and Brad Wiggins. Why are they
suddenly all testing positive for it now?

 * MB: Has Kenya found a super drug? 2021 Boston champ is one of 10 Kenyans to
   test positive for triamcinolone acetonide since 2021

   by providing false information or documentation.

Disturbing Stuff


LRC ALLEGATIONS OF COACH-ATHLETE SEX, RAPE AND DOPING ROCK HUNTINGTON UNIVERSITY
TRACK AND FIELD PROGRAM

Allegations regarding the Huntington University track and field team where Nick
Johnson used to coach and his wife Lauren Johnson now coaches continue to come
out thanks to the great reporting by David Woods and continue to get more grim.
Two national champions for Huntington claim their coach gave them unknown
injections and have asked that their national titles be invalidated. One claims
she was raped by Nick. Police reports show Nick, who had already pled guilty to
a felony after admitting to impersonating a University of Oregon staffer so he
could take a teen recruit on a trip where the teen told police many sexual acts
took place, has admitted to having sex with two other athletes and his wife
admitted she didn’t tell anyone at Huntington as she didn’t want them to lose
their jobs. She’s now the head coach. If that’s not bad enough, there are now
allegations of PED usage. Did PEDs cause the Johnsons to leave the Oregon Track
Club?

 * David Woods' Indy Star Expose: Christian college coach created a culture of
   doping and sex, star runners allege.
 * Gregg Doyel Indy Star: Coach goes to prison, so Huntington hired his wife
 * Huntington University places head cross country coach and assistant on leave
 * MB: Coach-athlete sex, rape and PEDs at Huntington University? Nick Johnson
   scandal gets grimmer thanks to David Woods

LRC ELIUD KIPCHOGE: WHAT, ME WORRY? - THE STORY OF KIPCHOGE RUNNING 10 MINUTE
MILES WITH BOSTON CHAMP AMBY BURFOOT

LRC EDITORIAL WORLD MARATHON MAJORS SLASHES SERIES ELITE PRIZE MONEY BY 69%; ARE
THE MAJORS DEAD?

The series used the elites to build themselves up as the majors in our sport but
now is forsaking the pros once the image is established. In the process, they
just screwed Eliud Kipchoge out of $200,000 after the fact as the cut is
effective immediately. Wow.

 * MB: World Marathon Majors SLASHES series prize money by 69% effective
   immediately, costing Eliud Kipchoge 200k and we aren't happy.
