"I look at individual sports like running / cycling in an amateur setting as a pure outlet for self improvement."

Well, naturally if you look at it like that, then why cheat except possibly because you are curious about how far you can take your body with assistance?

But we are not the ones cheating, and the people who cheat do not look at amateur sports they way we do. To them, there is a top dog in everything, And it's meaningful to them to be the top dog.

No matter how small the pond, there's always somebody who cares very deeply about being the biggest fish.
