More than 50,000 people slogged 26.2 miles through all five boroughs of New York City on Sunday in the TCS New York City Marathon, the world’s largest race of its kind. Among that enormous field of professional and amateur runners, a few famous faces inevitably emerge. This year’s crop of recognizable entrants included retired Giants star Tiki Barber, Katrina Bowden (30 Rock) and Joe Bastianich (MasterChef). But who’s the fastest celebrity of them all?

We ranked the times of 20 actors, musicians and other notable personalities who’ve taken on the challenge of the New York City Marathon in years past—not counting athletes, because that’s cheating. In sub-3:00 marathoner Lance Armstrong’s case, it’s probably double cheating.

For reference, the average finishing time for U.S. marathoners was 4:37 in 2011. On your mark, get set…

Running in 2010, the Subway pitchman made it clear that—besides eating $5 footlongs—running incredibly long distances is also a solid weight-loss plan.

4. Haruki Murakami, 3:31:26

The Japanese novelist has run more than 20 marathons, running his fastest ever in New York City in 1991.

3. Natalie Morales, 3:31:02
