Mousea Posted February 5, 2016 Share Was going to ask this question, but from a slightly different point of view. .. Did the Epic a few years ago, and got myself a very decent cold by the Wednesday. . Was given panado by the medics to bring down the fever. On the Thursday at the waterpoint medic tents I was given Advil. So the question is what is the legality of this? If I had been tested would I have been banned? And no, it didn't help my performance as we came 515th out of 520 something finishers!

Edgar Posted February 5, 2016 Share This is slightly off topic, but maybe a guideline around it. There is a list published with prohibited substances which is readily available. As an athlete, weekend warrior to superstar, it is your ultimate responsibility to know what goes into it. If you contravene anything on the list or in the rules of the event you could face a sanction. If you are caught, you will likely be sanctioned. Intent or lack thereof is not a mitigating circumstance. (in most cases, and certainly not worth relying on) Some people are unlucky and some intentionally cheat, the rules cannot accommodate for this as it will create loop holes. Intent or not, your actions have consequences and the rules are straight forward. andydude, rouxtjie, DJR and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edgar Posted February 5, 2016 Share Call yourself doper if you like but your scenarios are not the same as doping.Doping is intent to cheatMedicating yourself for quality of life or survival is NOT doping no matter how black and white people wish to paint it Why are the scenarios not the same? It is against the anti-doping rules.O Grady had to withdraw from a TdF for using a cortizone cream administered by the race doctor during a stage from the medical vehicle after a bee sting. (Lets ignore his much later confession for other infractions) As for part two: Medicating for quality of life or survival is not an offence, agreed. Competing at any level in a sanctioned event with prohibited substances is a doping offence. Which is sanctionable if your are caught. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
