IMO cheating in track & field (and other disciplines) is wrong on so many levels. I accept there are so many individual stories that should be looked at on a merit basis & I wouldn’t consider recreational drugs as damaging as performance enhancing but cheating & hoping not to get caught destroys the very fabric the Olympics SHOULD be about
Poor old Tyson Gay getting beat to bronze by his drug indused (now probably the cleanest man in sprinting) Justin Gatling is bad form.
Severe penalties for knowingly cheating may put off other dopers. All it takes is .2 of a second to be in the history books for ever.
