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 don't see them handing out the life-time ban. History has shown us that they don't do that. Angel Myers tested positive for steroids in 1988 but was allowed to compete in the 1996 Olympics.
That's kinda my point. Why is it such a relatively light punishment? 2 years seems like forever when you're 20 but it's not that long and with today's training, athletic careers are longer so 2 years is a smaller portion of a career than 30 years ago. Why allow people who have abused the rules to continue to participate?
