Re: t-and-f: Is anyone innocent?
Isn't Armstrong the youngest world champion ever in cycling? (if he was he achieved this prior to cancer) ... which would place him in a very elite class - or he was damn lucky. Post-cancer he trains at higher mileage, "the bigger heart" is pushing blood around a leaner body that is 15 pounds less than it was for his WC win weight. From a physiology standpoint, wouldn't this account for significant improvement? > http://sports.yahoo.com/sc/news?slug=ap-armstrong-doping&prov=ap&type=lgns > > The image that has always stuck in my mind is Lance Armstrong being caught > and annihilated in a time trial by Miguel Indurain(not sure what year, but > it was prior to his string of wins and his bout with cancer).

RE: t-and-f: Is anyone innocent?
You can't compete with most banned substances in your system whether you have a prescription or not. If that were the case everybody would get prescriptions for steroids, many of which are legitimate pharmaceuticals. The deal with Lance is that he took the EPO as a legitimate part of his cancer therapy. Everybody knows he wasn't faking the cancer. But assuming he used EPO only legitimately, it would have been long cleared from his system, and any increase in hemoglobin levels would have returned to normal long before he resumed his racing career. The goal of medical EPO therapy is to get the hemoglobin UP TO normal levels, not above them. Legitimate use of EPO is prescribed when you are very sick and very anemic, not when you are pedaling furiously up the Alps. He would have been way too sick to compete back when he was in the EPO phase of his treatments.
