there are different techniques used to cheat via blood altering. one is a blood transfusion that some atheletes used to do basically to give them more blood hence more haemoglobin and a better ability to transport oxygen to the muscles = faster runner. EPO (erythropoietin) is a hormone that regulates red blood cell production and if atheletes take it they will have more red blood cells.
