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.

Rain Man,
Certainly agree with your position, but not the practicality of the solution.
The fact is, while drugs and supplements can be dangerous, they generally DO help one get stronger and better at their sport compared to simply eating and living healthy....... hence the appeal and/or lure.
The fact is, most cheaters DON'T get caught. Hence many believe it may be worth it to cheat when they begin their qwest with PEDs. The testing is simply not good enough. I mean really..... how long has EPO been a problem in sports (particularly cycling). We STILL don't have accurate testing for this drug.

Study shows problems with Olympic-style tests
Athletes who want to cheat by injecting themselves with a performance-enhancing drug that boosts their blood cell count can do so with little risk of getting caught, a new study indicates, possibly exposing another flaw in what is regarded as the world's toughest anti-doping program.
