Did anyone see the new Gary Hall, Jr Barbarsol commerical. It is about time swimmers get some good endorsements besides Speedo and the other swimming apparel companies. Madison Ave has really come a long way in the last few years. You would never see a swimmer in a commerical a year after the Olympics before. It is nice to know that all the endorsements aren't going to Phelps even though the boy more than deserves whatever endorsements he get. I mean Phelps is out of this world.

Again, the question is not about Gary Hall or diabetics.
The question is simple. What are the positive effects of using insulin for a non diabetic athlete?
Gull80 you say.... " don't believe there's much interest in insulin among athletes "...... you are probably right about the general population of athletes at large. But that's not what we are talking about. We are talking about the smaller percentage who do cheat.
USCmaria..... believe me, I am FULLY aware of the difference betwe Type I and Type II conditions. You don't have a diabetic mother without learning the whole story.
BillS - I believe Dead Fish already pointed out that Roger Bannister was a diabetic and succesfully competed in much longer events decades ago. The reason Gary doesn't swim the 200 free is because you really have to TRAIN for that event. He's too old to train for the 200 free.... believe me..... I know..... :-)
