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.

Wait for what? It's over. All we're waiting for is to determine the length of the ban on the odd chance there might be hypothetical, though implausible, mitigating circumstances that are more than just "I don't even know how to spell clenbuterol" posing. There is no question that she had banned substances in her system WHEN RACING that gave her an edge over her competitors.
If that is indeed the case, then why do they even have an appeals process? It would be far simpler and cheaper to say "If you test positive on your A and B samples, you are guilty, no appeals, no chance to challenge it and we will mail you your sentence. Have a nice day." A process like that would also save a lot of time and money in the criminal justice system as well.
The evidence is strongly against her, but why not wait for the process put in place to protect the athlete to deliver the final "verdict" before potentially trashing her life? There have been instances where samples were mislabelled or chain-of-custody was violated or there were questionable positives, etc.
