Sondre Nordstad Moen

suando na África, vencendo em Hanôver e Fukuoka

O corredor de maratona norueguês Sondre Nordstad Moen preparou-se no incio do ano no "território" dos corredores do Quênia em Iten.
 Ele queria ganhar a maratona no dia 9 de abril em Hanôver - contra os corredores da África e conseguiu.

Muito já se escreveu após a surpresa para a maioria, da marca alcançada pelo atleta norueguês na maratona em Fukuoka,onde  SONDRE NORDSTAD MOEN completou  em 2h05m48s, passando a ser o melhor tempo europeu da distância, mas a obtenção de um tempo "canhão"  já tinha sido "ameaçado" em Abril na maratona de Hanover.
Moen que passou a ser treinado desde Setembro 2016,pelo italiano RenatoCanova, depois de renunciar ao anterior treinador norueguês Frank Evertsen,que contribuiu para a excepcional marca como sub20, nos 10.000m.

Transcrevemos a seguir,o que foi escrito em Março de 2017,no jornal alemão   HANNOVERSCHE ALLGEMEINE ZEITUNG antes da maratona de Hanover,concluindo  em 2h 10m07s, com cólicas no estômago.

O corredor de maratona norueguês Sondre Nordstad Moen prepara-se para o embate com os corredores do Quénia, em Iten. 

"Muzungu", eles gritam alto, assim que o vêem correr nas estradas vermelhas empoeiradas. Isso é o que os quenianos chamam a todos os brancos que os visitam. Mas quando eles chamam a Sondre Nordstad Moen, de 26 anos, parece ser diferente. Cheio de admiração. Porque Moen é rápido, e corredores rápidos amam os quenianos.

O corredor norueguês de longa distância veio para o Quênia para treinar. Ele queria estar tão bem preparado na linha de partida em frente à New Town Hall, em Hanôver, no dia 9 de abril, para que nada possa dar errado. Às 9 horas, o sinal de partida para o HAJ Hannover Marathon será emitido. Moen queria ganhar em Hannover - um objetivo ambicioso diante da forte competição internacional - e cobrir os 42,195 quilómetros em menos de 2h10 . Para fazer isso, ele voou para Iten, no Quênia, o lugar onde tem origem os numerosos  sucessos dos corredores do estado do leste africano. Aqui ele corre todos os dias, duas vezes, sem dias de descanso.

Treino a 2400 metros de altitude

"Home of Champions" está escrito em grandes letras, no arco acima da entrada de Iten. O termo não é exagerado. Quase todos os corredores quenianos de longa distância treinaram aqui. Campeões olímpicos, campeões mundiais e vencedores de maratonas, altamente dotados derrubaram quilómetros sem fim nos percurso ao redor de Iten. O local está localizado a 2400 metros de altitude - o ar está fino e o treinamento é extremamente cansativo. Mas a altitude também o torna particularmente efectivo.

Mesmo antes do nascer do sol, os atletas com roupas desportivas de néon de seus "outfitters" nas estradas irregulares. A corrida, é mais do que apenas um desporto para os quenianos. É uma das poucas maneiras de escapar da pobreza e encontrar um caminho para um futuro melhor. Os corredores bem sucedidos são "super stars" cuja história todos os quenianos sabem.

Comece 6:20, "Kenyantime"

O treinador de 72 anos, Renato Canova, da Itália, cuidou de muitos dos melhores corredores do Quénia. Desde setembro do ano passado, ele também é o treinador de Moen. Às 5h30, ele o recolhe na rua escura,com a camionete branca . Uma corrida de 45 quilómetros está no programa horário de treino. No ponto de encontro, os corredores do Quénia concentram-se às 6:20. Às 6:30 da manhã, nenhum deles ainda está lá. "Kenyantime", Moen fala sobre o atraso  sorrindo.

 Dez minutos depois, eles chegam de bom humor e a corrida pode começar. O ritmo de corrida é extremamente alto. Não admira, porque entre os corredores também está Abel Kirui. Ele é duas vezes campeão mundial na distância da maratona.

Apenas um minuto atrás

O treinador Renato Canova chega de carro, e explica aos seus atletas os tempos para as secções do percurso. Deve ser uma corrida de treino, mas esta unidade tem um carácter competitivo. Não há espera, e depois de 25 km, o primeiro corredor tem que ficar completamente exausto no carro. 
Moen não. Ele chega apenas um minuto após o primeiro queniano no final. Ele precisava de 2:34 horas para os 45 quilómetros. Ele rapidamente entra na van de Canova, muda sua camisola de corrida e come uma banana. 

A sua conclusão: "Fiquei bem, mas ainda preciso de algumas semanas de treino para obter a melhor forma".

No jantar, ele olha as vitórias e os melhores momentos dos corredores do Quénia no seu telemóvel. 

Em Hannover, ele quer estar no topo do pódio. Que concorrentes podem frustrar esse plano é secundário, ele diz. "A maratona é antes de tudo contra você".

CROSS,CORRIDA MONTANHA, E TRAIL
NOVAS REGRAS DE COMPETIÇÂO APLICÀVEIS A PARTIR DE 2018


SECTION IX - CROSS-COUNTRY, MOUNTAIN AND TRAIL RACES
There are extreme variations in conditions in which Cross-Country Running, Mountain Running and Trail Running are practised throughout the world and it is difficult to legislate international standardisation of these events. It must be accepted that the difference between very successful and unsuccessful events often lies in the natural characteristics of the venue and the abilities of the course designer. The following Rules are intended as a guide and incentive to assist Members to develop Cross-Country Running, Mountain Running and Trail Running.
RULE 250
Cross-Country Races Distances 
1. distances at IAAF World Cross-Country Championships should be approximately: Men 10km Women 10km U20 Men 8km U20 Women 6km The distances recommended for U18 competitions should be approximately: U18 Boys 6km U18 Girls 4km It is recommended that similar distances be used for other International and National competitions. Course
2. (a) The course must be designed on an open or woodland area, covered as far as possible by grass, with natural obstacles, which can be used by the course designer to build a challenging and interesting race course. (b) The area must be wide enough to accommodate not only the course but also all the necessary facilities.
3. For Championships and international events and, wherever possible, for other competitions:
(a) A loop course must be designed, with the loop measuring between 1500m and 2000m. If necessary, a small loop can be added in order to adjust the distances to the required overall distances of the various events, in which case the small loop must be run in the early stages of the event. It is recommended that each long loop should have a total ascent of at least 10m.
(b) Existing natural obstacles shall be used if possible. However, very high obstacles should be avoided, as should deep ditches, dangerous ascents / descents, thick undergrowth and, in general, any obstacle which would constitute a difficulty beyond the aim of the competition. It is preferable that artificial obstacles should not be used but if such use is unavoidable, they should be made to simulate natural obstacles met within open country. In races where there are large numbers of athletes, narrow gaps or other hindrances which would deny the athletes an unhampered run shall be avoided for the first 1500m.
(c) The crossing of roads or any kind of macadamised surfaces shall be avoided or at least kept to a minimum. When it is impossible to avoid such conditions in one or two areas of the course, the areas must be covered by grass, earth or mats. (d) Apart from the start and finish areas, the course must not contain any other long straight. A “natural”, undulating course with smooth curves and short straights, is the most suitable.
4.
(a) The course shall be clearly marked with tape on both sides. It is recommended that all along one side of the course a 1m wide corridor, heavily fenced from the outside of the course, shall be installed for the use of organisation officials and media only (obligatory for Championship events). Crucial areas must be heavily fenced; in particular the start area (including the Warm-up Area and the Call Room) and finish area (including any mixed zone). Only accredited people will be allowed access to these areas.
(b) The general public should only be allowed to cross the course in the early stages of a race at well organised cross-over points, marshalled by stewards.
(c) It is recommended that, apart from the start and finish areas, the course be a width of 5 metres, including the obstacle areas.
5. For Cross-Country Relays, lines 50mm wide 20m apart shall be drawn across the course to denote the takeover zone. All takeover procedures, which, unless otherwise specified by the organisers, shall comprise a physical contact between the incoming and outgoing athletes, shall be completed within this zone.
Start
6. The races shall be started by the firing of a gun. The commands for races longer than 400m shall be used (Rule 162.2(b)). In races which include a large number of athletes, five-minute, three-minute and one-minute warnings should be given. departure boxes shall be provided for teams races and the members of each team shall be lined up behind each other at the start of the race. In other races, the athletes shall be lined up in the manner determined by the organisers. On the command “On your marks”, the starter shall ensure that no athlete has his foot (or any part of his body) touching the start line or the ground in front of it, and shall then start the race.
Safety
7. Organisers of Cross-Country Races shall ensure the safety of athletes and officials.
Drinking / Sponging and Refreshment Stations 
8. Water and other suitable refreshments shall be available at the start and finish of all races. For all events, a drinking / sponging station shall be provided every lap, if weather conditions warrant such provision. Note: Where conditions warrant, taking into account the nature of the event, the weather conditions and the state of fitness of the majority of the competitors, water and sponges may be placed at more regular intervals along the route.
Race Conduct 
9. If the Referee is satisfied on the report of a Judge or Umpire or otherwise that an athlete has left the marked course thereby shortening the distance to be covered, he shall be disqualified. The finish area shall be wide enough to enable several runners to sprint side by side and long enough to separate them at the finish. Unless a Transponder Timing System is being used together with a backup system (such as a video recording) to check finishing orders, finish lanes (“funnels”) should be set up some 8 to 10 metres after the finish line with a maximum width of 0.70-0.80m. Once in the funnels, the athletes must not be able to overtake one another. The funnels should be 35-40m long into which the athletes will be directed as they cross the finish line. At the end of each funnel, officials will note the athletes’ numbers/names and if applicable recover their transponder timing chips.
 The funnels should have moveable ropes at the end at which the athletes enter, so that when one lane is full, the next rope can be drawn across behind the last athlete, to enable the next finisher to enter the new finish lane, and so on. Judges and Timekeepers will additionally be placed on either side of the finish line and it is recommended that, in order to follow up any appeal relative to the finishing order, an official with video recording equipment (if possible with a timing clock in sight) shall be assigned and placed a few metres after the finish line in order to record the order in which the athletes cross the line
RULE 251
 Mountain Races
 Types of Mountain Races
1. (a) Most Mountain Running races are mass starts in which all athletes start together or are started separately by sex or age categories.
(b) For Mountain Running Relays, the composition, course distances and course types could vary widely, depending on the natural conditions and the plans of the Organisers.
(c) Mountain Races with individual start times at various intervals are considered time trials. The results are ordered by the individual finish times.
Course 
2. (a) Mountain Running takes place on terrain that is mainly off-road, unless there is significant elevation gain on the route in which case a macadamised surface is acceptable. (b) Each Mountain Running course is a specific one with the natural conditions dictating the basic course route. Existing roads and trails should preferably be used. The Organisers are responsible to care for the environment.
(c) The course length may vary from 1km to the marathon distance respecting required technical details.
(d) Courses can be mostly uphill, up and down or a mix.
(e) The average incline should include a minimum of 5% (or 50m per km) and not exceed 20% (or 200m per km). The most preferable average elevation gain is approximately 100m per km provided that the course remains runnable. (f) Courses should be well marked. A detailed course map with a profile should be provided.
Start 
3. The commands for races longer than 400m shall be used (Rule 162.2(b)). In races which include a large number of athletes, five-minute, three-minute and one-minute warnings before the start of the race should be given.
Safety 
4. Organisers of Mountain Races shall ensure the safety of athletes and officials. Specific conditions such as high altitude in relation to the weather conditions and available infrastructure should be respected.
Drinking / Sponging and Refreshment Stations
5. Water and other suitable refreshments shall be available at the start and finish of all races. Additional drinking / sponging stations should be provided at suitable places along the course.
Race Conduct 
6. If the Referee is satisfied on the report of a Judge or Umpire or otherwise that an athlete has left the marked course thereby shortening the distance to be covered, he shall be disqualified.
RULE 252 
Trail Races
Course 
1. (a) Trail Races take place on a variety of terrain (including dirt roads, forest paths and single track footpaths) within a natural environment in open country (such as mountains, desert, forests or plains) that is mainly off-road.
(b) Sections of macadamised surfaces or concrete are acceptable but should be the minimum possible for the desired course and must not exceed 20% of the total distance of the race. There shall be no set limit on distance or altitude gain or loss.
(c) The Organisers shall, prior to the race, announce the distance and total ascent / descent of the course which must have been measured and provide a map and detailed profile of the course together with a description of the technical difficulties to be confronted during the race.
(d) The course must be marked in such a way that athletes receive sufficient information to complete it without deviating from it.
Equipment
 2. (a) Trail Running does not specify the use of a particular technique or specific equipment in its progression.
(b) The Organiser may, however, impose or recommend obligatory security equipment applicable to the conditions expected or possibly to be encountered during the race which would allow the athlete to avoid a situation of distress or, in the case of an accident, to give the alert and wait in safety for the arrival of help.
(c) A survival blanket, whistle, supply of water and a food reserve are the minimum elements which each athlete should possess.
(d) If specifically permitted by the Organisers, athletes may use poles such as hiking poles.
Start
 3. The races shall be started by the firing of a gun. The commands for races longer than 400m shall be used (Rule 162.2(b)). In races which include a large number of athletes, five-minute, three-minute and one-minute warnings before the start of the race should be given.
Safety
4. The Organisers shall ensure the safety of athletes and officials and must have a race specific plan for health, safety and rescue, including the means to provide assistance to athletes and other participants in distress.
Aid Stations 
5. Since Trail Running is based on self-sufficiency, each athlete shall be autonomous between aid stations in relation to clothing, communications, food and drink. Accordingly, aid stations shall be sufficiently spaced out according to the organisers’ plan so as to respect the autonomy of athletes but taking in account health and safety.
Race Conduct
6. If the Referee is satisfied on the report of a Judge or Umpire or otherwise that an athlete has left the marked course thereby shortening the distance to be covered, he shall be disqualified.
7. Assistance may only be provided at aid stations.
8. The Organisers of each trail race shall publish specific regulations setting out the circumstances that may result in the penalisation or disqualification or an athlete.

MUST ATHLETES PROVE HOW A BANNED SUBSTANCE ENTERED THEIR BODY TO ESTABLISH LACK OF INTENTION?

Print

Published 31 October 2017 | Authored by: Nan Sato Shoichi Sugiyama

The World Anti-Doping Code1 2015 (the Code) introduced significant changes to the ineligibility period imposed on athletes who have been found guilty of doping. Article 10.2 of the Code now splits the ineligibility period into four years and two years for first-time offenders, depending on whether the substance is “specified” or “non-specified” 2 (see footnotes) and whether intention can be established:

• 10.2.1: The period of Ineligibility shall be four years where:
  • 10.2.1.1 - The anti-doping rule violation does not involve a Specified Substance, unless the Athlete or other Person can establish that the anti-doping rule violation was not intentional. (emphasis added)
  • 10.2.1.2 - The anti-doping rule violation involves a Specified Substance and the Anti-Doping Organization can establish that the antidoping rule violation was intentional.
• 10.2.2: If Article 10.2.1 does not apply, the period of Ineligibility shall be two years.3

So a violation involving non-specified substances is subject to a basic sanction of 4 years unless the athlete can establish that the violation was unintentional, in which case the period of ineligibility is reduced to 2 years.4 On the other hand, a violation involving specified substances is subject to a basic sanction of 2 years unless the anti-doping organization can establish that the violation was intentional, in which case the period of ineligibility is increased to 4 years.5 In other words, if a violation involves non-specified substances, a heavier sanction is automatically implemented, and the athlete carries the burden to prove his or her lack of intention in order to reduce the sanction.

Unfortunately, there is a discrepancy surrounding what an athlete must show to prove that their violation was “not intentional”. One set of decisions have said that an athlete must prove how a non-specified substance entered their body to establish lack of intention; whereas another set of decisions have said it is not vital to prove this. How this question is answered is, in turn, affecting the outcome of cases.

This article summarizes the two different interpretations of “intention” under Article 10.2.1.1, and identifies the key case law on each side of the debate.

DECISIONS REQUIRING AN ATHLETE TO PROVE HOW A NON-SPECIFIC SUBSTANCE ENTERED THEIR BODY WHEN ESTABLISHING LACK OF INTENTION

Soon after the release of the revisions, the U.K. National Anti-Doping Panel (UKAD) administered by Sport Resolutions ruled that an athlete has to demonstrate how the substance entered his or her body to establish the lack of intention (see UKAD vs. Paul Songhurst6 and UKAD Limited vs. Lewis Graham7).

Following this panel, some other anti-doping disciplinary panels have also ruled that how a substance entered an athlete’s body is an indispensable element in establishing the athlete’s lack of intent. Such cases include:

• Canadian Center for Ethics in Sport (CCES) & Judo Canada v. Youssef Youssef8
• CCES & Canadian Weightlifting Federation Hal Terophile Canadienne v. Taylor Findlay9
• The Federation Internationale de Natation v. Mauricio Fioi Vilalnueva10
• USADA v. Ana Milena Fagua Raquira11
• WADA v. IFW and Yenny Fernanda Alvarez Caicedo12

The reasoning of these panels is largely based on three points.

1. It is inconceivable how an athlete can establish his or her lack of intent to commit an anti-doping violation, manifested by the presence of a prohibited substance, if he or she cannot even show the source of such substance.
2. For the elimination or reduction of an ineligibility period, Article 10.4 of the Code requires the showing of (a) how a specified substance entered the body and (b) the lack of intention to enhance the athlete’s sporting performance. These requirements, even not expressly, have been subsumed into Article 10.2 of the Code.13
3. There is a consistent line of jurisprudence which requires the showing of the source to establish the absence of fault.14

 

DECISIONS NOT REQUIRING AN ATHLETE TO PROVE HOW A NON-SPECIFIC SUBSTANCE ENTERED THEIR BODY WHEN ESTABLISHING LACK OF INTENTION

Nonetheless, the relevant provisions of the Code seem to intentionally avoid requiring the establishment of the source of the prohibited substance.15 In contrast to other parts of the Code which explicitly require the showing of the source to establish “no fault and negligence” or “no significant fault and negligence,16”

Articles 10.2.1.1, 10.2.1.2, and 10.2.3 do not contain this requirement. This deliberate omission may signify that the drafters did not intend to require athletes to demonstrate the source of the prohibited substances.

In fact, the decisions rendered by a number of anti-doping disciplinary panels did not require the athletes to show how the banned substances entered into their bodies:

• UKAD v. Andrew Hastings17
• UKAD v. Adam Buttifant18
• CCES v. Tristan Grosman19
• USADA vs. Tony Blazejack20
• Mauricio Fiol Villanueva v. Fèdèration Internationale de Natation21
• Arijan Ademi v. UEFA22

 

COMMENT

The division between the two camps is significant in that the exact same set of facts may result in completely different outcomes for an athlete depending on which panel reviews the case. In the Arijan Ademi vs. UEFA case23, for instance, the player received a basic sanction of 2 years because the panel deemed that the establishment of the source of the prohibited substance was not an indispensable element of proof of absence of intent.24 Although the player could not show how the substance entered his body, the panel was satisfied with the player’s showing that he did not knowingly engage in a violation. A panel in the first camp, however, would have reached the opposite conclusion, and as a result, the player would have received a 4-year basic sanction.

One of the objectives of the 2015 revisions of the Code was to provide more clarity on how certain provisions should be interpreted, including the provisions on the ineligibility period. Unfortunately, the effort to standardize the interpretations has failed and outcomes of the cases are vastly arbitrary depending on the reviewing panels. Athletes face great uncertainty and unfairness as a result of this remaining ambiguity in the Code. WADA should issue a clarification on its legislative intent to help unify the interpretation of these clauses.

In the meantime, athletes should be prepared to demonstrate the source of prohibited substances by preserving a sample of any medicines or supplements that they take.
