Three Kenyan athletes are in trouble with the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU).
Kenyan middle and long-distance runner Tabitha Gichia Wambui (39), provisionally suspended in February for the use of a prohibited substance (Norandrosterone), has now been banned for seven years.
Tests done on Wambui's urine samples submitted at the Copenhagen Half Marathon and the PKO Poznan (Poland) Half Marathon in 2021 reported an "Adverse Analytical Finding" for the presence of metabolites of Nandrolone (or Nandrolone precursors) consistent with the exogenous origin, namely 19-Norandrosterone.
