Legendary marathoner Eliud Kipchoge is scheduled to compete in the 2025 London Marathon on 27 April. Renowned for his exceptional speed and his tradition of debuting new Nike running shoes, anticipation is high regarding his footwear choice for the race. Many observers anticipate Kipchoge will wear the latest iteration of the Alphafly, the Nike Alphafly 3.

This shoe has revolutionized marathon running with its innovative design, featuring energy-returning Zoom Air pods, a responsive ZoomX foam midsole, and a lightweight Flyknit upper. Kipchoge’s previous world record-breaking performance in the Alphafly NEXT% 3 underscores the shoe’s potential for peak performance.
