    TORONTO – The Canadian top female hurdle running Priscilla Lopes-Schliep has a physique that looks like she spends hours long in the gym working out with heavy weights and possibly consumes large volumes of illegal substances.

    But nothing could be further from the truth. The 29 year old athlete is as ‘clean as a whistle’ and has never been charge with any doping violation.

    Priscilla suffers from a rare illness that relocates fat mass around her body, often just below the skin, giving the skin a dimpled ‘muscular’ look.

    If it is an illness why is she running track? Not exactly the best
    way to take care of your body.
