Jacob Kiplimo is set to make his full marathon debut in London on Sunday .

The 24-year-old is expected to break Kelvin Kiptum’s world record of 2:00:35 .

The Ugandan was regarded as a superstar in waiting even before he competed over 5,000m at the 2016 Rio Olympics .

He faces one of the greatest London Marathon fields ever assembled.

Kiplimo promises that he and his team can be trusted by Rosa 's lawyer.

Rosa ’s lawyer insisted that the government did “not have an iota of evidence against my client,” and he promises to be trusted.

He is particularly excited to face Kipchoge , who he helped pace to a sub two-hour marathon in Vienna in 2019 , albeit in a race which didn't qualify for a world record under World Athletics' rules.
