Katie Holmes Gets Support From Her Family At The New York City Marathon
November 4th, 2007
On Sunday Katie completed the 26.2 mile long New York City Marathon!
She got a quick kiss from Tom as she entered the final stretch to the finish line in Central Park.
And Tom wasn’t alone for the brief encounter with his running wife. In his arms was the couple’s daughter, Suri. Awwwww!
Tom and Suri, as well as his mother and Katie’s parents, were all at the finish line to greet Katie, who seemed anything but exhausted, despite the strenuous day she had just endured.
She made it to the finish line around 3:30 p.m., with a final time of 5:29:58.
Reunited with her daughter after the race, a cheerful Katie gave Tom a big hug and kiss.
Before her arrival, inside the banquet tent set up in Central Park, and with his daughter at his side, Tom told People magazine that he is “very” proud of Katie, whom he finds “inspired. She trained for three months.”
Then Tom had to chase Suri around the tent. Tom exclaimed: “She’s a runner!”
Back at her hotel, with Suri in her arms, Katie was asked by People magazine how she felt. “I’m good, but I’m feeling very tired,” she admitted.
As for which leg of her long trek had been the toughest, she replied with a very tired smile, “They were all challenging.”
Katie told Harper’s Bazaar in March that she ran off the pounds after giving birth to Suri. “I have always loved to run,” she said. “It has helped me lose the extra baby weight.”
Congratulations Katie!

Katie needs to wear a sports bra when running…her mammies are looking a big looong…!
Suri looks slow in the first photo…spaced out…tuned out!!
Something is wrong with her…!
2. Andrea | November 4th, 2007 at 10:59 pm
It wasn’t a rumor afterall . Looks like she’s pigeon-toed.
She should have worn a sports bra.
3. DMITZ | November 4th, 2007 at 11:12 pm
Congrats Katie! That’s wonderful. How cute that Tom and Suri were waiting for her at the finish line. :)
4. kt | November 4th, 2007 at 11:29 pm
WHY DO YOU LADIES CARE ABOUT HER SHIRT WHEN SHE IS IN A MARATHON?!?!! it’s not a fashion show!
she is clearly wearing a shirt that has a built in bra, and she doesn’t have huge breasts, so who the hell cares?
i did a marathon a few years ago and it was the hardest thing–physically–that i’ve ever done. i’m happy for her that she did it and congratulate her on the accomplishment. it’s a great feeling, so if you haven’t done one and you have the ability to do so, i highly recommend it.
5. Mellynn | November 4th, 2007 at 11:33 pm
It is a huge accomplishment, and I don’t think anyone was trying to demean it. To be honest, if you have run a marathon, I would think you would be the first to say that a good sports bra is key. It was an observation. Relax!!!
6. JJ | November 4th, 2007 at 11:59 pm
There I go again stirring trouble. I have never run a marathon – and never intend to. I dislike running a great deal. However, I do partake in Pilates and always make sure that I am wearing a supportive bra…I have been wearing sports bras when exercising since I was a teenager…my girls thank me for that.
7. daisy | November 5th, 2007 at 12:05 am
Tom and suri look like dumb and dumber in that first pic.
8. annie | November 5th, 2007 at 12:27 am
Thank you Daisy, that comment made me laugh. I will never understand why a sweet girl like Katie Holmes, who had such a sparkling career ahead of her, marry a dink like Tom Cruise.
9. lola | November 5th, 2007 at 1:26 am
Well, she looks older than her age – as TC has been changing her looks ever since he renamed her “Kate” – changing her hairdo, changing her name, changing her dress style…her religion.
10. Grandma of 4 | November 5th, 2007 at 7:08 am
You go girl! As the 63 year old running daughter of an 89 year old STILL running father (not to mention a 55 year old running brother who held the world’s record in marathon for 17 year olds for years)…I have to say a HUGE CONGRATULATIONS TO MISS HOLMES! And, Mr. Cruise has every right to be proud of his wife (even with the name change and religion I find a little unusual!). Good for her family to unite and cheer her on!!!
11. **S | November 5th, 2007 at 7:44 am
dumb and dumber? You people crack me up. Suri does not look “slow” in any pic of her.
Love them!
12. Paris | November 5th, 2007 at 9:11 am
As for the tank ,it has a built in bra. I am thinking ,a lot of people are jealous of Katie Holmes. Suri and Tom are so lively that i can not think for one minute they look dumb. This child is not slow, the other one yes but not her.
13. 2teens3beans | November 5th, 2007 at 10:04 am
#12 I think the “slow” comment was supposed to be tongue-in-cheek.
Suri is for sure cute, but I need my Shiloh fix! Haven’t seen the JP kids in a while.
14. kt | November 5th, 2007 at 11:47 am
as a matter of fact, Mellynn , i have run a marathon. thanks very much.
15. Jailynn | November 5th, 2007 at 12:23 pm
Do you guys ever think that maybe Suri looking “slow” is because all the damn flashes of light in her eyes and people calling her name. Poor little girl is barely 1 1/2 years old. Give it up…she’s a very cute little girl!
16. Liv | November 5th, 2007 at 1:43 pm
I can’t believe how someone can sit in their chairs idling at a computer trying to belittle what this girl has done. I think running a marathon is such a great achievement . Go Katie.
17. Jane | November 5th, 2007 at 1:44 pm
SURI as usual is a doll but even she cannot steal the limelight from her mother’s mammoth achievement, congs Katie.
18. Gina | November 5th, 2007 at 1:45 pm
Suri looks bored, but you cannot accuse her of being slow, she is too hyperactive for that, I read on th e ‘people sit ethat sh erun aay from her parents. LOL
Congs Katie
19. Malayka | November 5th, 2007 at 1:46 pm
Congs Katie, you aare an inspiration to all mothers and daughters. I could never run a marathon. Her boobs must have hurt, but I see nothing wrong with them. And for those sour grapers, get a life or die trying.
20. Malayka | November 5th, 2007 at 1:47 pm
My comment is awaiting moderation but I just want to conguratulate this girl on such an achievement.
21. daisy | November 5th, 2007 at 1:51 pm
Oh my goodness. Why don’t you get a quarter and buy yourself a sense of humor.
Of course Suri isn’t slow. And she is one of the cutest kids I have ever seen, not just celebrity.
Does this site always have to be about OOOOOOOoooooooooooooo Ahhhhhhhhhhhh how cute! How boring life would be if all the images you captured were perfect.
Doncha think?
Geez, we tease like this about ourselves in our own home.
22. daisy | November 5th, 2007 at 1:54 pm
P.S.
I still think the first pic looks like dumb and dumber
:D
23. Chris X | November 5th, 2007 at 1:54 pm
I dont’ care if she runs around the world in 80 days – they all give me the creeps. And at the risk of getting bashed – since everyone bashes Jen Garner for always being at the park with Violet instead of hiding at home or whatever you think she should be doing, , adn bashes Angelina for going different places to help the poor, why not bash this one for taking time to run and run and run to train then take some more in a race that is not related to anything – like breast cancer. Or did I miss her doing that? Or does she just get the urge to run when she can go to a party and then her husbands movie that might?
24. Lauren | November 5th, 2007 at 2:04 pm
Wow, congratulations Suri! How sweet that her family was there waiting at the finish line. Katie is looking a tad thin, though.
25. WHATTTTTTTT | November 5th, 2007 at 3:13 pm
I LOVE THEM!
26. Melissa | November 5th, 2007 at 4:18 pm
Why is Tom Cruise looking “feminine” these days? He’s looking more and more like a woman. I laughed at the dumb and dumber comment. They do look a little spaced out.
27. lol | November 5th, 2007 at 4:46 pm
Was Katie not “allowed” to wear shorts? It must have been really warm running in those pants for 5 hours.
28. mayra sanchez | November 5th, 2007 at 5:09 pm
es hermoso ver a tom,con su bebe suri,pero me pregunto donde
estan sus otros hijos,si el tiene la custodia absoluta de ellos
pues entonces katie,no es tan buena madre para ellos,
como dice jada pinket
ellos,hacen mucha preferencia de su hija sobre los otros dos
ninos,que lastima
29. megs | November 5th, 2007 at 7:33 pm
Good for Katie, how cool to have your mom in a race, I would have loved to have seen my mom do that when I was little!
I am not so into Tom Cruise but feel they made a beautiful and darling little girl…all the best to them…
anyone know what running shoes Katie is wearing? I am a distance runner and think I might have them.
30. oriana | November 5th, 2007 at 7:38 pm
I would think that any Runner would have on a Sports Bra and it doesn’t look like she has any protection on to keep them from flopping around to me. I like her so I am not picking on her at all, just looking at the pictures. Some Tank Tops do have built in bras but I don’t think they are for Runners.
She doesn’t have huge breasts but she isn’t exactly flat chested either.
I don’t care what anyone says, this looks like a happy family to me and Suri has never looked “slow” a day in her life! She is one of the most alert looking children I have ever seen.
31. kt | November 5th, 2007 at 8:28 pm
the thing is, 1. wearing a sports BRA is not always necessary, and 2. wearing long pants is sometimes MORE comfortable, and in a marathon, comfort is KEY.
when I did mine, i wore capri length spandex pants. they help b/c otherwise my thighs rub together and after hours and miles like that they would be rubbed raw, lol, and that is so painful. a marathon is painful enough! i wore a sports bra but that’s b/c i’m a DD! katie looks like a B cup and probably her bra shirt was enough for her. she obviously knew what works for her and what doesn’t, and that’s all that matters.
32. Zbella | November 5th, 2007 at 10:06 pm
I’m impressed. My sister is a marathon runner and it’s no small accomplishment. I, on the other hand, abhor running and avoid it at all costs. I ran ‘part’ of a 5K (walked the rest) and it nearly killed me! I just can’t imagine running for 5 1/2 hours straight. AGONY.
33. 2teens3beans | November 5th, 2007 at 11:02 pm
^^^ I agree Z, I’ll take a spinning class, zumba or yoga any day over jogging or running. I tried to go once round my block and practically collapsed halfway. And I am not obese, don’t smoke, don’t have asthma… I just couldn’t handle it.
34. alphie | November 6th, 2007 at 1:24 am
Suri. That girl is adorable. Tragic that she’s in a cult.
Dumb and Dumber? She just looks drugged in the picture. Cool aid :)))
Katie Holmes is a sad sack for marrying that creepy, creepy Tom Cruise. He runs her life. Has family permanently around her. She doesn’t have a mind most of the time that isn’t run by them. Which movie does that couple remind you of Rosemary’s Baby or Stepford Wives?
35. Cathi | November 6th, 2007 at 1:10 pm
I’m just glad that Katie is doing something that does not involve Tom. She is showing some independance and I’m happy about that. The bra thing is dumb…get over it people.
36. oh dear | November 6th, 2007 at 2:07 pm
firstly – katie DOES need that sports bra
secondly – i commend katie on even being able to walk, let alone complete a marathon with those pigeon toes and thunder thighs
thirdly – tom’s snout is nearly as big as his entire head
and
fourthly – katie dear, the only thing you should be running from is your control freak, cult following, bi-sexual midget of a husband
37. Jenna M. (UK) | November 6th, 2007 at 4:59 pm
Wow, well done for her, especially as it was for charity. I can’t run lol, except when I have to run to catch my bus or something! I prefer more relaxing exercises.
Probably would have been a good idea for her to wear a more supportive bra though, she’ll regret it in 10 years time when she has breasts round her ankles!
38. Mil | November 6th, 2007 at 5:25 pm
get a bra girl haha anyway, congrats on what she’s doing ! there’re such a cute family
39. boo | November 7th, 2007 at 12:01 am
I guess the speculation of her being pregnant again was wrong! Cuz she looks to be pretty Fit and skinny to me.
40. Janey | November 7th, 2007 at 8:58 am
Running a marathon is no smal feat and Katie gets all stars from me for doing it. Suri does look bored but she is such a cute thing, any one notice she looks like Tom’s mum in that picture? I think it is katie’s choice to wear or not to wear a bra, she trained and did what she feels comfortable with.
41. oriana | November 7th, 2007 at 4:20 pm
Oh Lord, I pray she never looks like Tom’s Mom! I think she is a nice lady but she is not a beauty to look at! And Tom’s nose CANNOT get any bigger! The thinner his face gets the bigger his nose looks. Suri is just adorable and oh so cute, even if she is a Brat!
42. dori | November 8th, 2007 at 9:20 am
Katie totally shocked me with this marathon. And we thought she was only out shopping all the time. I’m surprised the German papers never caught her jogging in preparation for this event. She must have been training while in Germany. Good for her. The first pic I see Katie smiling like she means it for the first time in a long time.
Congrats to Katie.
43. Martha | November 8th, 2007 at 1:27 pm
# 36 Jealousy is not a good color on you.
44. DMITZ | November 8th, 2007 at 1:34 pm
Mayra,
Ellos están con su madre (Nicole Kidman). Pienso que los dos consiguen a los niños por meses a la vez. Tom es un padre muy bueno a ellos.
45. oriana | November 8th, 2007 at 5:13 pm
I too commend her for running this race and I admire anyone that does this. I have seen many pictures of Katie with Tom, they do appear very happy and in love to me.
I wonder why though when they go out that Katie doesn’t sign any autographs, it is always Tom? Maybe I am just noticing something that isn’t of any consequence, the fans probably are all calling Tom’s name.

suri looks fine to me….. They just caught her at an awkward moment.
48. Lizzie | November 9th, 2007 at 11:07 pm
Why such harshness regarding this family? So what she didn’t wear a support bra?! Geez! Some of you act like it’s going to make a freakin’ difference in gas and oil prices, the number of US casualties in IRAQ, which bozo will end up in the White House, the lack of sufficient health care for our children, world hunger, illegal immigration, and etc. etc. NEED I SAY MORE?! Those, my friends, are issues we should be concerned about. Who gives a flying fart in space whether or not Katie wore a freakin’ support bra?! GET YOUR PRIORITIES IN ORDER!
49. littlecutie | November 17th, 2007 at 1:28 am
TOM LOOKS GAY.
50. oh dear | November 19th, 2007 at 2:21 pm
tom IS gay!
51. kelly | January 14th, 2008 at 12:20 pm
