Sharon Lokedi banked Ksh26 million when she won the 2025 Boston Marathon in a new course record and it was thanks in part to a special pair of shoes.
Sharon Lokesi is still basking in the glory of her Boston Marathon win after she ran a tactical race to beat defending champion Hellen Obiri.
Lokedi executed a great strategy to romp home with the win in a new course record time of 2:17:22 which saw her earn a cool $200,000 (Ksh26 million) for winning the race and breaking the course record.
The Kenyan runner’s win was also aided by the shoes she wore in Boston on Monday which were specially made to make her running not just comfortable but give her the edge over her rivals.

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce Begins 2025 With Win as Shericka Jackson, Sha’Carri Richardson Await Battles Ahead
Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce opens her 2025 season with a confident win, signaling readiness for upcoming showdowns with sprint rivals.
Lokedi is among athletes signed by Under Armour and on Monday, just like at the 2024 New York Marathon, she wore the Under Armour Velociti Elite 3.
Talking to FN, Under Armour senior product line manager Jonathan Hutnyan said one of the main differences between the Velociti Elite 3 and its predecessor is the removal of Flow, the brand’s responsive and grippy foam compound that eliminates the rubber outsole which makes the overall shoe lighter.
The shoe also features a full-length carbon fiber plate and Hovr+, the brand’s new midsole compound, which Hutnyan terms a HTPU bead foam. The midsole stack height is 37 millimetres in the forefoot and 39 millimetres in the heel.

'I Messed Up' - Usain Bolt Reveals 2012 Olympic Tactical Blunder That Cost Him New 100m World Record
Usain Bolt has revealed the strategic mistake that cost him another world record at the 2012 Olympic games in the 100 meter event.
However, those willing to wear the shoes will have to wait until 2026 when they will arrive in unisex sizing and retail for $250 (Ksh32,462).
After losing to Obiri on three occasions in Boston, Paris Olympics and New York Marathon in 2024, Lokedi finally got the better of her Kenyan compatriot in 2025, laying down the marker for what awaits in the rest of the season.
It was also a big score for her shoe brand Under Armour which beat rivals On, worn by Obiri, who was donning the On Cloudboom Strike LS as she finished second on 2:17:41, and Nike, which was used by Ethiopian Yelemzerf Yehua, who clocked 2:18:06 for third place, in Nike Alphafly 3.
