Rita Jeptoo, the female Kenyan runner who has won the Boston and Chicago marathons for the last two years, has been barred from competition for failing a drug test, officials announced Friday. Jeptoo has been banned for two years. “AK followed due process in her matter and it was appropriate that she serves a two-year ban,” Athletics Kenya Chief Executive Isaac Kamande said. Jeptoo has denied doping and called the accusations “lies.”
