Brahim Boulami (Arabic: ابراهيم بولامي; born April 20, 1972 in Safi) is a Moroccan athlete who set two world records in the 3,000 meter steeplechase, 7:55.28 and 7:53.17.[1][2] The latter was overturned because he tested positive for the banned performance-enhancing drug EPO.[3][4] Boulami was banned for two years in 2002 after the positive test.[3] His time of 7:55.28 in the 3000 meter steeplechase from the year before the positive test is currently the fourth fastest ever run.
