Kenya’s 2021 NY marathon champ gets drug suspension
Kenya’s former New York marathon champion Albert Korir was provisionally suspended on Monday after testing positive for a performance-enhancing drug in the latest hit to the reputation of the country’s running programme. Korir, 31, tested positive for the synthetic form of erythropoietin (EPO) that stimulates red blood cell production, the World Athletics Integrity Unit said. He won the 2021 New York marathon in a time of 2:08:22, and came third in 2023 with a personal best time of 2:06:57, and he won the Ottawa marathon in 2019 and 2025.
