“Schmidt or one of his helpers flew specially to Hawaii to look after at least one athlete at the Honolulu Marathon in December. With over 30,000 runners, the marathon is one of the ten largest in the world. Triathletes were not among Schmidt's customers”.

„Meanwhile, the Munich Public Prosecutor's Office, upon request, stated that by referring to the Hawaii doping scene, it did not mean the famous IRONMAN of the triathletes. Instead, the annual marathon in the capital Honolulu is said to have been the reason for the activities of the group around S.“.
