Dara just one the national title in the 100M Freestyle in 54.4 at the ripe old age of 40. Simply Incredible. :applaud: :woot: If that's not inspiring I don't know what is.

    Rob, That's true, a substance is either legal or illegal.... no gray area. However, Ande is referring to the process of cycling on and off supplements to pass screening. While there may not be traces of the drug to trigger the test, the residual performance enhancing effects can still be quite positive. John Smith One must admit that when an athlete opens themselves up to random and frequent screening the option of cycling on and off is not really available to them anymore. So really, the only option that seems to exist is that she is using something that is not detectable..possibly due to the fact that it is unknown as you have suggested previously.
