London Marathon winner Sabastian Sawe hopes the rigorous testing he underwent before becoming the first sub-two-hour marathoner will prove to the world he is competing clean.
There have been a slew of high-profile doping cases involving Kenyan runners in recent years, notably women’s marathon world-record holder Ruth getting a three-year ban in October.
In agreement with his coaches and management team, Sawe said he volunteered to undergo “multiple” doping tests to dispel any suspicion around his own performances.
Sawe said he and his team decided to implement the stringent testing regime and he wanted to show the world that he can run clean and also run fast.
