    The Olympics

    Anyone looking forward to them ? I love the Olympics but with all the things surrounding them this year I am not looking forward to them as much. I'm sure that when they start I will end up watching a lot of them though

    I could give you a huge list of drug cheats that have been known within the athletics game.

    But I'm not willing to name them

    Woman marathon runner

    Cyclist number of golds

    100 MTR runner from the 80s

    Another 800:meter 1500 meter runner really well known holding a extremely good position .

    I've seen amateur runners taking stuff to help them improve they were that desperate back in the 80s & 90s.
    But I will say this there's also stuff out there that improves your performance they should be banned too

    CREATINE for one that helps you train harder and for longer .
    For example let's say you can do 10x400 meter reps with a minute recovery 3 months on that stuff you can do 15-20 400s in the same
    time but with less pain in the legs not the so heavy feeling.
    That's defiantly a sports enhancement drug if you like but its allowed .

    Its all over the place in athletics and believe me the higher up you are the more the one step ahead of the authorities you are.

    I think it’s now about time we changed tack on this.

    Let’s legalise all performance enhancing drugs that are known to be safe. And make them available to athletes in poor countries that might not be able to afford them

    Then we’ll have fair competition, and a credible sporting event. Everyone will be on a level playing field. It will suit the drugs companies that will make and sell legitimate drugs. And encourage them to develop other safe drugs that work. IWO, bring the whole business out of Frenkenstein labs where it is now.

    As it is there is likely to be clean athletes banned and doped athletes taking part.

    No because one holds an extremely high position that would worry me.

    Hey lord Coe does a very good job for the worldwide athletics even though.

    But I'm not that stupid even fellow competitors knew what the athletes were up to ..

    To get even it left some with no choice but to take also its their living that has been taken away from them ..

    I can also say nearly EVERY 100 meter runner on the start line in any big event has indeed been taking stuff.
    Most people know that anyway.
    For me every world record has a question mark over it.
    It was never so easily!y seen with Flo Jo.

    We should have a games for clean athletes and one for enhancing drug athletes be interesting to see the difference .
    Don't think there would be many top 3 athletes at any track event at the up and coming Olympics if that were the case.

    You are saying that in the 100 metres at Rio nearly every atheletes will have been taking drugs ? That's a pretty big statement to make
