In addition to drawing the best runners in the world, the New York City Marathon also attracts some big names in pop culture. Celebrities from the sports, television, music, and movie world all strap on their shoes and do their best to stay hydrated while running the 402.195 km/26.2 miles through all five boroughs. Ahead of the Nov. 6 event, New York Road Runners — the organization that aims to “help and inspire people through running, serves runners of all ages and abilities through races, community runs, walks, training, virtual products, and other running-related programming” – announced the deepest celebrity field to date.

Arguably the biggest names running in 2022 are Ashton Kutcher, Ellie Kemper, and Lauren Ridloff. All three are also running for a good cause: Ashton’s running to raise money for Thorn, the nonprofit he started with his ex, Demi Moore, in 2012; Ellie is running for The Brotherhood Sister Sol; and Lauren is running to raise funds for PS 347, the American Sign Language and English lower school in New York. Other celebs are running for charity – and some for fitness – so check out the full list below.

The 2022 edition of the New York City Marathon sees the race return to its full glory. The race was canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and in 2021, pandemic precautions limited the number of competitors to 33,000. In 2022, 50,000 racers are expected to start. How many complete the race remains to be seen. Will any of the following celebs cross the line? Tune in on Nov. 6 to find out.
