andersonkaren+FollowLondon 2012: The Dirtiest Race Ever?Anyone else still haunted by the 2012 women’s 1500m final? The drama in London was unreal, but the real story unfolded years later. Lisa Dobriskey called out the field for doping, and she was right—almost half the top finishers, including the original gold and silver, were later banned. Clean athletes like Dobriskey and Shannon Rowbury were robbed of their moment. Is this the most tainted race in Olympic history? How do you feel about medals being reassigned years later? #Olympics #TrackAndField #DopingScandal #London2012 #CleanSport #Sports20Share

What do you think—fair snub or too soon to judge? #ConnorBedard #TeamCanada #Olympics #Sports #IceHockey20Share
