I remember back in the day, watching a local kid doing well in local running races, on the local cable access channel. A black kid from Toronto. He was fast, and kept getting faster. I was watching him as a 14-15 year old. Solidly built kid, but fast. Over time he got bigger and faster. His coach went on about all the training he did, how focussed he was and so on.
I took particular interest in his career since he was local. Ben, Ben something. Yeah, that's right, Ben Johnson! I still vividly remember hearing about him getting busted in Seoul. I couldn't believe it. He hadn't got big and fast, overnight like a typical steroid user, he'd done it gradually. I couldn't believe it, but it was true.
Now, after Ben, and Lance, I don't believe anyone fast is clean. I just assume they haven't gotten caught yet. The recent retesting of samples that passed previously, has unfortunately, shown me to be justified.
