Spanish distance star Mo Katir has accepted a two-year ban for whereabouts failures, leading to his absence from the 2024 Olympics and 2025 World Championships. The ban stems from three incidents in 2023, including missed tests and filing failures, with explanations that were deemed flimsy. Katir's acceptance of the ban means he will retain his medals from the 2022 and 2023 World Championships, impacting athletes like Mario Garcia Romo and Luis Grijalva, who narrowly missed out on medals due to Katir's performances.
