How did lance armstrong not get caught for doping for so many years? If its that hard to get caught then should we be worried about other althletes?

The function of doping controls isn’t to stop doping, it’s to keep it to a dull roar. Everyone above a certain level of every sport is using some form of PEDs. You can’t not – the margins of difference in terms of performance are so small, and the benefits so great, that even microdosing is very worth it. Effective anti-doping controls keep things like Tom Simpson from happening – died of a heart attack mid-race after doing enormous quantities of PEDs and street drugs.
If we were really worried about athletes, we wouldn’t incentivize winning so much in our culture.
