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.

I've said this once before on here......IT DOES NOT MATTER how it got in to her system.........she is ultimately responsible for ALL Supplements taken.
Excellent.
Everyone is missing the main point. All the banter here and there about legalities and system reliability, etc. don't matter. The threshold levels are set high enough that accidents won't cause false positives, she tested positive A and B samples, she deserves the punishment.
I posted last week, maybe on the "Crap.. someone pos." thread that we all need to get back to basics, like relying on the food we eat. Why the obsession over supplements and vitamins and this powder/that drink? Rely on your body to tell you how training is going, getting through more workouts and harder workouts because you ingested a chemical compound can't be healthy to the person overall.
We've heard BS from athletes before - I never heard of this drug, I'm innocent, then Jessica's.. "I can't spell it". Yeah, whatever, don't play stupid, you're a professional athlete. Blame the supplements - hey I've got a suggestion - DITCH the supplements.
How come every time an American tests positive it's either a conspiracy or an accident, or they didn't know, or they have a medical condition no one ever heard of, etc? Some people cheat. Some cheaters get caught.
