2. Celebrity Runners
Among the tens of thousands of people who run the NYC Marathon, you might spot a famous face. Elite athletes, New York City officials (like former NYC Parks Commissioner Mitchell Silver who ran in 2018 and 2019), and even famous actors and singers have been known to lace up their running shoes and hit the streets.
The New York Times reports that this year, celebrity runners include first-timer Ashton Kutcher, actors Ellie Kemper, Claire Holt, and Lauren Ridloff. Celebrities making returning runs include New York Giants running back Tiki Barber, and Nev Schulman, producer and host of “Catfish: The TV Show” on MTV.
