Eliud Kipchoge’s NN Runing team has been boosted with new racing kits for the 2024 season. The kit, by Nike, comes in time for the Tokyo Marathon, which takes place on Sunday, March 3.
Kipchoge is aiming for a third consecutive marathon gold. Speaking to Olympics.com, he expressed his eagerness to compete. The long-distance runner said: “I promised the Japanese people that I would go back for the Tokyo Marathon. I am looking forward to running fast again and enjoy.”
For the Marathon, the NN Running team will don the new racing kit. It shared on X (formerly Twitter) that the design is centered around the leaf of the Acacia tree. Acacia trees are a component of the African ecosystem that thrive in arid regions, where there are limited water sources.
The Kenyan team explained the design, saying: “Paying homage to our deep connection with the African landscape in which we run countless of hours preparing to shine on the world stage.”
