E450 | A Historic Day at the London Marathon

from The Drop · host Believe in the Run

On Sunday, the sport of running and the art of marathoning was forever changed as Sebastian Sawe ran the first-ever official sub-2-hour marathon. He wasn't the only one to do it, of course, and they both ran in the Adidas Adizero Adios Pro Evo 3, the lightest race day shoe ever at 99 grams. We give our thoughts on the race and the past and future of footwear, as well as plenty of other running (and non-running discussion).SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!SWIFTWICK: You already know that Swiftwick makes our favorite socks for running, from training to race day.
