Jonah Koech banned three years for blood doping, USADA announces

USADA has banned American 1500m runner Jonah Koech, 29, for three years after he admitted to blood doping. His athlete biological passport flagged highly atypical blood values; he accepted the sanction without contest. Koech's US Outdoor Championships 1500m title (3:30.17, a meet record) is stripped, moving Ethan Strand and Cole Hocker up.
