Thats a sad reflection on the state of US sprinting that a masters rider is national elite champ.
Seriously, whats happened to all the gun sprinters in the US?

[It's always hugely entertaining when all them frisky juniors and elite Cat 1/2 riders line up at the start line with Gil Hatton, determined to show up "the old guy." He usually lets 'em have a lead so they can just start smelling the victory, and then, WHAM!! He's laying down the hammer and pippin' 'em at the finish line. I watched him do this all summer last year at Encino.]

All the top track countries have government supported programs - Australia, Netherlands, UK, Germany.

Actualy he was caught because of testosterone. The drug he was on, hGC, has testosterone in it. Alot of drugs cause a testosterone deficiency(cause of small balls) and thats how they catch it. This one creates it to help hide it. Only once and a while you get a stroke of **** luck and get caught.

first of all, it is hCG.
secondly, it does not have testosterone in it. it mimics a hormone that causes the production and release of testosterone by the 'nads.
