Weeks ahead of the National Senior and Junior Championships, the country’s track and field fraternity has been hit with a major blow with the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) revealing in a statement yesterday that national long jumper Carey McLeod has been banned for two years after admitting to three whereabouts failures.
The 2024 World Indoor Championships bronze medallist accepted the sanction after the AIU found he breached Article 2.4 of the World Athletics Anti-Doping Rules, which relates to missed tests and filing failures by athletes in a registered testing pool.
The AIU is the independent body created by track and field’s governing body, World Athletics, to govern and manage all integrity-related issues in the sport.
