Katie Holmes Runs the NYC Marathon

2007_11_kholmes.jpg

2007_11_kholmes2.jpgWith considerably less fanfare than Diddy or Lance Armstrong, Katie Holmes ran the NYC Marathon in 5 hours, 29 minutes, and 58 seconds. She wore an FDNY baseball cap, black pants and a purple tank top - and was possibly surrounded by a security detail who might have been running alongside her.

Mega-star husband
Tom Cruise and child Suri Cruise, as well as her parents and mother-in-law, were on hand to give the former Dawson's Creek ingenue support along the marathon route. After hitting the finish line, Holmes told People that the entire race was challenging, "I'm good, but I'm feeling very tired."

Holmes enjoys running - we used to see her, pre-Tom Cruise days, running on a treadmill at Crunch on Lafayette. And it's unclear if Cruise is in town to hype his upcoming film, Lions for Lambs, or to talk Scientology's 9/11 health treatments - or both!

tom looks like a sucka-foo with that dome cut.

He looks like a woman in that bottom-right photo.

5:30??? Oprah did it in an hour faster. No wonder she looks so fresh, she powerwalked the damn thing.

What an accomplishment Katie! Congrats! Tom is such a hunk too! Lucky you! Can't wait to see "Lions for Lambs" and "Valkyrie" :-)

Tom, what's with those bangs? Your kid has a better stylist.

Tom and Katie! I love you! I can't wait to be a minion in your brain-washed alien army!

My son had the same haircut until he was in kindergarden, then my wife and I decided to send him to a barber.

The cute kid could use a good hair washing and a hair style also. It looks like a weed was dropped on her head.

What happened to the white blanket and the baby bottle shown in the second picture? Did he just toss them in a waste basket? Not very scientological if you ask me.

Also notice Kate's breasts as she is running, she appears to be getting excited about something. Either that or she hit a cold spot on the course.

One more thing. Regarding the size of the lapels on his jacket a confirmation coat could probably made for the child from those lapels.

Tom looks straight out of risky business with that hair.

Is it me or is that bald guy next to Katie a scientology minder?

I'm not a fan of Tom Cruise's haircut, but I'll say this about Katie Holmes' time: It's probably about five hours faster than I'd run a marathon!

And Suri Cruise is a pretty cute baby.

According to the gossip mags, Tom is sporting the bangs for his role in the movie Valkyrie, which is currently filming.

I'm not a particular fan of Tom or Katie, but good on Katie for finishing the marathon! I'm in decent shape, but there's no way I'd be able to run 26.2 miles in an entire day, let alone 5.5 hrs.

Looks like Katie's nipples finished a few seconds before the rest of her body.

Calm down people. Cold air and constant motion will make anyone's nipples hard. As for her running time, it's pretty good considering it's her first marathon. Don't hate!

His haircut is for that Nazi film he's doing, fools!
You think Tommy Girl would ordinarily wear such a mop on his head? PLEASE!

It looks like a wig. Or a beard.

Tom Cruize is a short toothy smiled twerp.

For someone who is in great shape and supposedly runs frequently, it is not a great time, even in a first time marathon. Puffy did the damn thing in 4:45 the first time. Oprah did 4:30. My wife, who is not in the shape Holmes is, did 5:00.

If she really busted, she would have looked tired at the end. She wasn't trying that hard. Sorry. Good for her doing it, but she essentially powerwalked it.
