Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas ran the Marine Corps Marathon in 3:11 in 1980!
I've long thought that if Oprah can run a marathon, I should be able to do it too!
My brother ran the 2009 NYC marathon and I remember him mentioning that Ed Norton ran it too.
Ryan Reynolds was looking hot in his picture :)!!
Soo inspiring!!
I thihnk I am goign to try and run NYC next year by signing up for 9 races!
every time I see that picture of Katie Holmes, all I can think is "OMG, she ran an entire marathon with NO BRA…WHAT?"
I would be sprinting right behind Ryan Reynolds.
..Yes please!
🙂
Wow – Ryan Reynolds was a pimp already, but now know that he's a marathoner? Even better! (I'm actually surprised to see GWB's time!)
Anybody else suprised by Will Ferrell's time? Who knew?
I love this post!! I have so many comments, eesh. I mean GOOD for each and every one of them, but when Katie Holmes was running you'd think she placed first. Lance's time is sick! And look at Diddy getting beat by the Pres – he wouldn't have made the band.
Who would have thought Oprah would have a better time than Mario Lopez by almost an hour! Fun post 🙂
still cannot believe katie holmes ran a marathon without a bra. even those of us with small boobs need sports bras! unless we want to end up with our A cups around our waist by the time we're 40.
