Track coach Alberto Salazar's appeal of his lifetime ban for sexual misconduct was rejected by the US Center for SafeSport in the latest, and likely final defeat of his once-storied career. The 63-year-old Salazar was handed the lifetime ban in July but appealed the case. His entry in the SafeSport database was updated this week to "permanent ineligibility," signalling the appeal had been rejected.
