how is setting multiple world records considered a weak period for marathon running?

But how do you know Bekele wasn't doping? He is as suspect as Kiptum coming out of constant DNF and running within 2 seconds of a world record.
Of course he thinks he's going to win. The guy ran 2:01 twice !

Prior to London, Kiptum is quoted at the press conference as saying “I'm not ready to go for a world record now.” He goes on to run within 16 seconds of it. Is it even debatable as to the all time status of what he did the 2nd half of that race?! Zero percent chance the WR lasts for 5 years.
Yes it seems like his MO is to downplay things. I would not be fooled, but here at least he did give a little detail in saying he started his prep a little later than idea.
