    The problem is that with the potential damage to the body and their career this is exactly what happens. Only the retired or mid performers are willing to actually take on the experiment. Top athletes already use some forms of doping but are very protective, since they have more to lose. Only those with nothing to lose will go all in on the enhancements.

      That sounds about right. Still, seems neat. Swimming obvs is a little different, but id love to see Roids McDaniels race against Methy McStevens and maybe Gout Gout (guy who broke Bolts record).
