At his age, they should let him take anything he wants to have fun!:D

At that point, aren't you only cheating against yourself?

I hope to God I win a race and fail a drug test at 90. What a freaking badass

I'll bet there's no complaints about his Viagra.

I don't know if I'll be failing any tests, but if I make it to 90, I'll be taking a lot of drugs.

some of of us already are. I started 3 new ones after my issues last year not to mention a magnesium supplement. I think I ever taken enough of that to build a Kirk by now.

Eat meat to get your iron nutrients-

A real Ironman!

At the pee test, hand over to the authority's a wet diaper.

I bet he's lazy, listens to loud music, and is disrespectful to his parents. Typical druggie ...

Ninety, and still cheating... he's never going to change. The old, "it musta been in the meat I ate" claim. Yeah, whatever old man; age and wisdom are not the same thing. I think the saddest story here is that his story is the only reporting done on the Us Masters Track National Championships (at least nationally). Not the kind of press one hopes for, for your sport.

Pppbbbttt! I'd take all the PEDs I could get my hands on. Heck, at 61 I'd take 'em now. Might as well maximize use of whatever's left of this body. It won't improve with age.

But I wouldn't enter any sanctioned events. Or if I did I'd be up front about doping and just say I'm only in it for a personal record. But I can see why organizers would decline. There's a psychological aspect to competition and knowing another participant is cheating could discourage others from doing their best or even entering.

Ditto KOMs. If I happened to set any while doping I'd post it on Strava. My few top tens are all heavily wind assisted and I post those details on my Strava log. It feels cosmetically impressive to see my name near some local pros, but their top tens were in neutral or adverse wind conditions, so on a weighted scale their efforts should rank higher.

Dread it..run from it..destiny arrives all the same.

When I first heard of this before reading the article I assumed he was from Southern California. Local masters racers on the podium are amped up often.
no limit to what to take to have bragging rights.

Did anyone check to see if he's really 90 years old?
