  • Is someone going hop on a plane to Sarasota and get a urine sample from her? Would someone go to Y nats just in case a national record is broken? Or would USMS (or some other organization) contract with a local lab? What's the maximum time after a swim during which a sample could be collected?Current doping control protocols call for the doping control officer to maintain contact with the test subject from the time she completes her swim until the time she produces the sample. The DCO's generally try to get the sample within a few minutes after the swim, but it can take longer.
