Chasing Sub 2 (2026)

One vision. One shared conviction. Breaking the Sub-2 barrier tells the story of chasing the unthinkable: completing the first marathon in under two hours. What began as a decade-long ambition, ignited by Haile Gebrselassie during the 2008 Berlin Marathon, finally came true at the 2026 London Marathon. Kenyan runner Sabastian Sawe has triumphed in every one of the four marathons he’s entered. Among his many historic achievements stands a jaw-dropping 1:59:30 finish, driven by the latest Adizero breakthrough—the Adizero Adios Pro Evo 3. The lightest and fastest super-shoe ever created by Adizero, tipping the scales at under 100 grams. Humanity just got quicker.
