Very interesting article. Mike Powell (USA, long jump) indicates that he would pursure legal action.

Given the circumstantial evidence provided, their time and how long the records have lasted, it's pretty clear that both Kratochvilova and Marita Koch were drugged.

The idea of erasing all the pre-2005 records is also interesting considering there have been lots of positive tests since then. It's not as if all the athletes competing since 2005 are clean.

Yeah, she must be innocent, she never tested positive despite all the testing.

Anyone who thinks she was on drugs is just jealous...or a Jarmila hater.

I clearly remember her running around back in the 80s. Used to watch the athletics with my dad and we'd laugh at her manly physique.

Along with the likes of Heike Drechsler (sp), who if my memory serves did get done for drugs. She was reasonably attractive to a young teenager until she raised her arms....

Edit: turns out she never tested positive. Their were rumours but no positive drug tests. My bad.
