Salome Jerono Biwott has been suspended again by Athletics Integrity Unit for testing positive for Norandrosterone.
The 36 year old was suspended in 2013 when she failed a drugs test after winning the 2012 Standard Chartered Nairobi Marathon but it has emerged that she was tested positive again after finishing Sao Paulo International Marathon in 2:37.33 on April 7, this year.
The marathoner enjoys 2:30:47 as her personal best set at Hannover Marathon on April 10, 2016 only a few months after completing her two-year ban.
She is now likely to get another four-year ban if found guilty, four years after completing the other doping ban.
Biwott becomes the fourth Kenyan to be suspended for doping within two months after World Half Marathon record holder Abraham Kiptum, 2017 World Champions 5,000m representative Cyrus Rutto and Felix Kirwa were sanctioned
Biwott joins 2017 Tokyo Marathon champion Sarah Chepchirchir, former three times World 1,500m champion Asbel Kiprop, Hilary Kepkosgei Yego, Samson Mungai Kagia, Olympic marathon champion Jemimah Sumgong and Lucy Kabuu.
