they just cleared his name
The EPO test is not 100 % …
well, I hope Mitch Anderson took his Kona slot in Switzerland, just in case he was not 10th anymore.
Also, if he is cleared, it means that they showed the EPO test doesn’t work. It doesn’t work for Beke. but if it doesn’t work for one athlete, then they have to remove the test altogether, and all athletes who tested + to EPO after Beke did and didn’t admit anything should be cleared…so that means Berasategui will be cleared too…
I wonder what Nina Craft is thinking about now?
Haim
Nina admitted she took EPO. I think she was overwhelmed by the guilt and learned her lesson.
but she is probably thinking that if she’d shut up, today, she’d likely be the kona winner of 2004…
Who is “they”? I looked around and couldn’t seem to find any announcement of his name being cleared. The last I heard was that the Flemish Doping Agency had given him an 18-month suspension and he had appealed. I checked his website, but the English version doesn’t have an update since the March press release about his position re: the suspension. The Flemish version looks like it has an update, but I can’t read it. May Wim can translate?
He is cleared by the disciplinairy council of the Flemish comunity. They gave him the 18 months suspension. Wada is waiting with their comments…
