hello, i have a medical condition called attention efecit decorder........it allows me to display incredible bursts of phisical energy. the medication for this brain condition is methamphetamine (speed, cocain like drug) which has a calming effect on me instead of the usual hyper effect......my question is if i take part in a marathon without using my medication will my medication still be in my system months after taking it and will i get disqualified if it is?....i have been told that these type of drugs forever stay locked in skin cells whilst the rest of the body eventually flushes them. the skin cells break down when weight is lost and the drugs are re released into the blood stream. does this rule me out of running professionally? and is there any truth behind this?

many thanks in advance
You are talking about possible drug tests and hopes of professional running. I can't really answer your questions but I am interested in your race times - you have to be pretty darn good to run as a pro. Perhaps your coach (I assume you have one) can offer advice.

Bad spelling or tongue in cheek toll??? : : : -DF : : Yeah, I caught that. I'm thinking troll is the right word for this post.
BTW- I too have attention deficit disorder and lately it's been really bad and
what on earth makes you think anyone here could answer this?
