When he went public with doping allegations last May, the Russian whistle-blower‎ Grigory Rodchenkov told a remarkable story. A long-serving chief of the country's anti-doping program, Rodchenkov confessed that, out of the same lab designed to nab cheaters, he'd also secretly been running a state-sponsored doping program. Almost by accident, the 42-year-old spent nearly two years intimately documenting the scope and depth of the alleged Russian doping program. Catlin then referred the director to Rodchenkov, a Russian athlete-turned-chemist at a Moscow site called the Anti-Doping Centre. He's the point man for Russian anti-doping efforts — and, it turns out, its doping ones too.
