The Enhanced Games competition, designed to promote doping with the aim of breaking world records and offering millionaire prizes, has closed its first edition with modest results. The only unofficial record achieved was by Greek swimmer Kristian Gkolomeev, who surpassed the 50-meter freestyle world record with a time of 20.81 seconds. This mark was achieved using doping substances and a polyurethane suit prohibited in official competitions.
Sprinter Fred Kerley, a double Olympic medalist who had announced his intention to break Usain Bolt's 100-meter dash record, won the race with a modest 9.97 seconds. This time is far from his personal best (9.76s) and even further from Bolt's record (9.58s). Kerley stated he had not resorted to prohibited substances.
Despite 91% of the 36 participating athletes competing under the influence of doping, using substances such as growth hormone (79%), stimulants like Adderall (62%), or EPO (41%), the competition only managed to break one world record. The few athletes who claimed not to have competed doped won their events, such as Kerley and Tristan Evelyn in the 100 meters, and Hunter Amstrong in the 50 meters backstroke.
Other participants, like Dominican weightlifter Beatriz Pirón, did not achieve their anticipated marks despite training with substances. Colombian Olympic medalist Leidy Solís came close to her personal best, and the giant Thor Bjornsson could not surpass his own deadlift record.
The CEO of the Enhanced Games, Maximilian Martin, expressed satisfaction with having changed the world and witnessed athletes becoming the best versions of themselves through science. The competition, created by billionaires and technologists linked to the 'MAGA' movement, aimed to dominate the anti-aging drug market.
