"I'm simply noting that not long ago Chelimo was an athlete who was in full 
health. And today at 29 he is dead," he said.

It's probably much more a case of Chelimo drinking way too much 'home
brewed' alcohol than any drug use. Chelimo was a big time drinker and his
choice of "poison' unfortunately is oftern just that. Discussing Chelimo's
death with Henry Rono on Saturday, Henry told me: 'If I had strayed in
Kenya, I'd be dead too. First whiskey is too expensive, then beer is too
expensive, but you can always get home made alcohol.' /Drew
