Shelby Houlihan, the reigning US 1500m and 5000m record holder, has announced that she will miss the upcoming Olympics after testing positive for nandrolone. The athlete claims that the positive test resulted from eating a pork burrito from a food truck, which she alleges was contaminated with the banned substance. This revelation has sparked controversy and disbelief within the track and field community, with Houlihan asserting her innocence and appealing the decision. As a consequence, her absence from the Olympics represents a significant loss for US athletics, as she was considered a medal contender in both events.
