That is Espresso with Larry for Tuesday, November 15, 2022.
Our subjects:
1. The New York Occasions collection of articles on the New York Street Runners and the NYC Marathon.
2. The NYRR anti-doping guidelines could also be well-meaning however unrealistic.
3. Whereas many need to defend Nnena Lynch, who has achieved a variety of good, the three months constructive suggests one factor: on the time, underneath the then guidelines, Nnena Lynch was given the least draconian punishment. At the moment, her use of pseudoephedrine wouldn’t have even rated a hand slap.
4. The difficulty is that NYRR allowed itself to be centered on for setting such a excessive, maybe unrealistic, normal.
5. As one of many leaders within the sport, they’re
a spotlight.
6. Every NYC marathon week, somebody will discover stuff to criticize them about. They should be extra cautious and buttoned down.
7. NYT was doing its job, though a few of the observations took criticism.
8. Sharon Lokedi will not be answerable for Athletics Kenya’s testing; she needs to be within the Marathon testing pool; not NYRR’s fault, however a mistake by AIU.
8. Lesson? Extra testing is required in Kenya, a pool of 100-150 is required in WMM testing protocols.
