At least 90% of the people who beat me :-)No response will be better than this one, close thread!
These two responses are just childish nonsense...
10% doping is actually low IMO, if you look at how many AGs "supplement" with "health" products most Pros won't touch.
Hormone precursors and all the gym-rat variety of supplements of unknown quality that do providing noticeable "gain".
So maybe 10% KNOW they take something that may pop them if they are not careful.
And probably another 10% that had been "crossing" over from strength/body-building/fitness scene, where supplements are considered part of the culture.
40% drafting sounds about ballpark...Not happening for all or at the same time, but half of the field drafting during an IM race at one time point or another is a reasonable number.
The 5% cheating otherwise not sure...I think that may be on the high side.
Given the great logistics of Ironman(R) races with plenty of timing mats.....still need whistle blowers, though.

Looks like your sarcasm meter is broken.....
