  • it has been estimated that haile gebreselassie can keep 350 women satisfied

  • Quite the opposite: track and field is one of the few sports that takes drugs seriously and busts cheaters, regardless of their popularity or standing within the sport. The stringent anti-doping efforts far exceed those of most other professional sports and add credibility to the performances we see. Certainly, there are many who try to cheat, but the system has tightened in the past several years such that it is much harder to get away with cheating.
