The Greatest Olympian Ever?

Yes how strange that she increased her PB's in both the 100 and 200 by large margins and then quit in 88 when out of competition drug testing was coming into force in 89. Retiring at what 29 after increasing her physique and records so dramatically in 88.

How odd ;) I personally doubt she would have added much to her tally before being caught and stripped of what she had.

She was on dope, she died at a young age, and it was something that you could die of if taking dope

She might have been taking performance enhancing drugs, her improvement was remarkable even in an era where a number of athletes were known to be taking them but Muban is right, we're unlikely to ever know conclusively if she was cheating and the cause of death is also unlikely to have been associated with any possible drug taking.
