Did they or did they not? - a question not meant to be answered.

Although I have not been able to join an organized race since June (have been merely confined to running indoors), I am deeply saddened by news of alleged "cheating" that happened in a recent race involving a good friend and some others.
I may not have any right to comment on this, it's just that Running is such a beautiful activity supposed to promote camaraderie and sportsmanship, unfortunately something like this happened.
I just wish for this to serve as a lesson to everyone, guilty or not. Most of all, I hope that those who were wrongly accused will be given a chance to be heard for the sake of fair-play.
Another thing, I've been hearing the term "elite" several times already and it's beginning to sound annoying. When someone's elite, it doesn't necessarily mean they don't lie (intentionally or not) or they know everything. Besides, in high society, if I'm not mistaken, most of the elites lie about their taxes. :D kidding :D
