In a stunning interview last night after appearing on the Late Night Show with David Letterman, triple Olympic gold medal winner and triple World Record Holder Usain Bolt made a shocking admission to using the drug Ad Rena Lin. His admission comes in the wake of widespread accusations and speculations about the validity of his world record breaking performances at the recently concluded summer Olympics held in Beijing, China. These accusations and speculations were led by former three-time Olympic gold medal winner, Carl Lewis and Victor Conte, the founder and president of the Bay Area Laboratories Co-operative (BALCO).
It should be pointed out that Carl Lewis was reportedly tested positive three times before the 1988 Olympics for banned substances, a ruling that was overturned by the USOC due to inadvertent use, whilst Victor Conte pursuant to a plea bargain struck with prosecutors, entered guilty pleas in July 2005 to one count of conspiracy to distribute steroids and a second count of laundering a portion of a check, he was sentenced in October to spend four months in prison and another four on house arrest. In December 2004, he participated in an interview with Martin Bashir on ABC’s 20/20 program, where he admitted to running doping programs for athletes who have broken Olympic records.
Mr. Bolt also admitted that the drug, Ad Rena Lin, was widely used amongst his fellow Jamaican athletes at the just completed Olympics. The little island in the Caribbean with a population of 2.7 million, recorded their biggest medal haul at a single Olympic since first entering in 1948. The island's contingent led by an awesome performance from Mr. Bolt himself, finished with a record 11 medals - six gold, three silver and two bronze - beating, by four, the previous highest tally of seven at the Sydney Games in 2000.
Jamaica had never won more than two gold medals at any one Games before. This time, they captured three times as many to finish third on the track-and-field table, behind powerhouses United States with seven gold, nine silver and seven bronze, and Russia with six gold, five silver and seven bronze.
Mr. Bolt revealed further in the interview, that the mysterious drug was administered throughout the team’s pre-camp training but the doses were increased thirty minutes prior to the start of each race for greater effect. The drug was self-administered in plain view of the unknowing public every time he entered the stadium through an earpiece attached to his I-pod. He revealed that the I-pod was used to pump out the sounds of the latest Jamaican Dancehall music which in turn has a chemical reaction that causes the drug to increase its flow through the veins. The effects of the drug could be seen in his pre-race antics when the muscles in his legs and arms started to twitch and he broke out into a dance.
Based on this revelation, it could be safe to assume that the drug was in effect when the cameras caught Mr. Bolt’s fellow teammate, Melaine Walker’s muscle twitches prior to her winning the 400m hurdles race or Shelly-Ann Fraser’s uncontrollable burst of energy after decimating the field in the 100m women’s finals.
Although the drug, Ad Rena Lin, has long been known for its effect by scientists, WADA and the IAAF, it was never placed on the banned substance list. In 2001, the WADA commissioned several of the world’s leading scientists to study the effects and what triggers the drug. The world now awaits the actions of the IAAF now that it can be proven that Jamaican Dancehall music will act as a catalyst to increase the flow of the drug through the veins that will give an unfair advantage to these Jamaican athletes.
While the world waits, Mr. Bolt will continue on his worldwide quest in becoming a global icon.
