The 2025 London Marathon is just days away, at the time of writing. On the feet of all those runners will likely be some of the best running shoes you can buy right now; we’re talking the Nike Alpha Fly 3, Asics Metaspeed Sky Paris, and the Hoka Cielo X1 2.0, which we gave four stars in our review. Dedicated shoe fans will also spy some of the elite runners wearing the new Adidas Adizero Adios Pro Evo 2.
This is the racing follow-up to the Pro Evo 1. First revealed in September 2023, it was on the feet of athlete Tigst Assefa as she broke the then-current women’s marathon world record. According to Adidas, it’s been racking up the wins and was also first over the line in the marathon at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
