I'm not plugged into the running news like Don is with cycling, but I read this today and thought it would be good to share.
The Confessions of Eddy Hellebuyck
It's a very well-written editorial; I'm so used to Runners' World publishing new diet and training fads. I was pretty sad when The Penguin left Runners' World and it felt like the quality of writing there declined dramatically. So this piece was very refreshing to me.

3 Soliloquies:
Wow. I think we've seen that when people get caught, one strategy is to raise doubt about the testing and play on the ignorance of the public, knowing that some people will support them no matter what.
In the end it's not much of a leg to stand on.
Hi Don!
You're right that blaming anything but yourself is a sucky strategy. That and denial. It will always bite you in the butt at the end.
I'm far from being an elite runner, but I am interested in seeing how awesome I can do on any particular run. I'm really disappointed that these people feel like they need to cheat. I guess I don't understand their perspective very well, because to be honest, I would love to run a sub-4:00 marathon.
Merry Christmas Diane! I hope you're having a wonderful holiday!
