      Of course, I was also a kid in the eighties and I remember watching the 1986 Euro champs, the 1987 World championships or the 1988 Olympics and marveling at what I considered to be super-athletes. In fact, I was so gullible (and still a kid) that when Germany reunified shortly afterwards, I thought they would be unbeatable in athletics or swimming. Hell, I even remember Bob Kersee claiming that Flo-Jo could go under 47 seconds in the 400 meters, clock 10.20-10.30 in the 100 meters and record another astronomical time in the 200 and thinking "wow, what a superwoman!".

    Amazing what PEDS can do to an athlete. No other women's 400m runner has ever come close to Kratochvilova's time of 47.99, save for a doped Marita Koch in 1985. That's a staggering 30 years. The sports authorities should seriously consider wiping out or erasing all world records in athletics before the implementation of more stringent doping tests from year 2000. Even the present winning time for the women's 400 metres at the Rio Olympics set by Shaunae Miller of the Bahamas stands at 49.44s. That's a staggering 1.5 seconds behind Kratochvilova!

      Yes, performance-enhancing drug taking in sport is still rife. We'll never be rid of it.
      I don't think 'state-run ' drug programmes - like the one that existed in the GDR - exist today, but there ARE countries who I believe do NOT carry out a rigorous random drug testing programme, presumably because those countries see medals as prestigious - exactly as the GDR did all those decades ago.
