Could Marion Jones win without performance enhancing drugs in the early 2000s? After denying doping, she was erased from the record books and stripped of all her medals from 2000-2001, including the record 5 she achieved in Sydney. Her 8 relay teammates in that span were also stripped of their medals because of her infractions. She was on pace to becoming one of the most dominant athletes of her time regardless of gender before being caught, and denouncing any athlete taking enhancement drugs beforehand, all to be found guilty later herself. Here’s how Marion Jones went from the top of sports to disgraced athlete, to brighter days. She's seen her share of success in both basketball and Track and field, dominating in both on her way to becoming the ideal athlete. She's also seen her share of hurdles mainly for lying to federal agents about using PEDs and her involvement in the BALCO scandal. She was sentenced to 6 months in prison and did her time head held high. She's now out and rebuilding her legacy one stride at a time. What would she have been as a natural athlete?
