As we count down to the 100-day mark before the Sanlam Cape Town Marathon, technical sponsors, adidas, proudly announces the launch of the Sanlam Cape Town Marathon Boston 12 running shoe.

Cape Town, 12 July 2024 - This special edition shoe is a first for adidas South Africa and joins the ranks of the world's most prestigious marathons, such as Boston and Berlin, which all have their own official race shoes. The Sanlam Cape Town Marathon Boston 12 celebrates the spirit and endurance of Cape Town's marathoners, offering a blend of cutting-edge technology and African-inspired design in men's and ladies' colorways. 

The Adizero Boston 12 Shoes are built for mid- to long-distance running, bringing a race-day feel to training with a propulsive feel from the glass-fibre-infused ENERGYRODS 2.0, which limits energy loss underfoot. They're fast, but that does not come at the cost of durability - the midsole combines ultra-light LIGHTSTRIKE PRO cushioning with durable LIGHTSTRIKE 2.0 EVA.

As runners gear up for their training, the Sanlam Cape Town Marathon Boston 12 is designed to enhance performance and endurance, making it an essential part of preparation for race day. 

The Sanlam Cape Town Marathon is fast becoming one of the world`s most iconic marathons and is on a quest to become Africa's first World Major Marathon. The introduction of an official race shoe by adidas is a testament to its growing prestige.

The Sanlam Cape Town Marathon Boston 12 is retailing at R2999 and is available online from adidas.co.za and select adidas stores.
