This week I realized that doping in sports probably takes place more often than we think. It’s been happening in football and soccer for a while but the biggest doping stories in the news have come from baseball and track & field. Countries have been successfully coming up with ways to evade detection of using performance-enhancing drugs for decades.
I recently watched the documentary ‘Icarus’. It dives deep into a man’s journey of using performance-enhancing drugs under the guidance of experts in the field until a big twist completely changes the storyline. I won’t completely spoil it here for those who haven’t it but Icarus is definitely worth a watch whether or not you are a sports fan.
