The IAAF is reviewing Blake_Leeper's application for competition, saying that the double amputee runner must prove his blades don’t give him an advantage.
, but said it will not complete the review process in time for the event.a 30-year-old middle distance runner who competes with running blades on each legafter the International Association of Athletics Federations told him and his attorneys earlier this month that the review process for his eligibility would not be finished by the start of the event, which takes place September 27-October 6.
Leeper is being represented by the same attorneys that handled Pistorius’s case. Where the case is different, Leeper said, is that there are no set guidelines for what specific evidence must be presented for him to run, but his attorneys have submitted an application to the IAAF that is currently being reviewed.
“I understand this is a process, and yes, I’m hurt, but there is a bigger purpose for all of this and that’s why I have to be patient.”
