Katie Holmes Survived The New York City Marathon

Did you spot Katie Holmes among the 38,000 runners at the New York Marathon this weekend? We didn't, but armed with only a flimsy tank top and a look of determination, Mrs. Tom Cruise was able to finish the race in about five and a half hours. Holmes stayed at New York's Carlyle Hotel the night before and went out to the Staten Island start of the race with Tom and baby Suri, who joined fellow spectators along the course.

Like Katie, the two top finishers in the women's field are also moms--Great Britain's Paula Radcliffe and Ethiopia's Gete Wami who ran most of the course together before Radcliffe sprinted ahead in the last mile. Martin Lel of Kenya, who placed first in the 2003 New York City Marathon, won the men's race with an unofficial time of 2:09:05.
