Bjarne Moller, est de mémoire le premier triathlète en longue distance a être suspendu pour dopage. Ce qui n’est pas très clair, c’est qu’il était inscrit pour l’Ironman d’Afrique du Sud. Est-ce que le programme anti-dopage de WTC l’aurai détecté? Enfin c’est Challenge Copenhagen (une autre série Ironman) qui communique de ce fait, silence total chez WTC…
Voici le communiqué.
« Due to the fact that danish pro triathlete Bjarne Møller has admitted the use of EPO during a training camp in South Africa during 18th to 26th of March, he is instantly deleted from the start list of Challenge Copenhagen.
