Harry Styles Sprints Past A-Listers: How His Berlin Marathon Time Stacks Up In Socal Style

Harry Styles Hits the Finish Line in Record Time

Yo, LA fam, let’s talk about Harry Styles turning the Berlin Marathon into his personal red carpet moment! Last Sunday, the 'Watermelon Sugar' crooner clocked an unreal 2:59:13, crossing that 26.2-mile finish line with the kind of swagger you’d expect from a Hollywood Boulevard star. That’s right, under three hours - a time that’s got even the fittest SoCal gym rats shook.

But here’s the tea: Harry’s not just running for clout. He’s now part of an elite crew of celebs who’ve tackled some of the world’s most iconic marathons, from NYC to London. So, does our boy Harry take the crown as the fastest A-lister, or is there some Malibu-style competition waiting to steal his shine? Let’s lace up and dive into the rundown!

Hollywood’s Fastest Feet: Celeb Marathon Times Ranked

We’ve scoped out the 411 on Tinseltown’s marathon mavens, and trust, these stars are bringing more heat than a Santa Ana wind. From Deadpool to Baywatch babes, here’s how Harry’s time stacks up against the glitterati who’ve pounded the pavement for charity, personal goals, and straight-up bragging rights.

Stick with us as we break down the numbers, the causes, and the pure grit behind these celeb runners. Who’s got the speed to match an LA freeway chase scene? Let’s find out!

Ryan Reynolds: Deadpool’s Not-So-Deadly Pace

First up, we’ve got Ryan Reynolds, the Deadpool dude who swapped superhero stunts for sneaker strides at the 2008 New York City Marathon. Clocking in at 3:50:22, he ran to raise funds and awareness for Parkinson’s disease, honoring his dad in true Hollywood heartthrob fashion.

Ryan spilled to HuffPost that he wasn’t exactly a natural on the track, cracking, “I’m not a runner. I’m a running joke.” Still, that time’s nothing to scoff at - even if he’s not catching Harry on a Venice Beach boardwalk run anytime soon!

Ashton Kutcher: Overcoming Odds with Grit

Ashton Kutcher brought some serious SoCal determination to the 2022 TCS New York City Marathon, finishing in 3:54:01. The actor ran for Thorn, a non-profit he co-founded to fight child sex trafficking, making this more than just a race - it was a mission.

What’s wilder? Ashton battled a rare autoimmune disease, vasculitis, that temporarily stole his ability to walk, see, and hear. To come back and crush a marathon like that? That’s the kind of comeback story we live for in LA.

Marcus Mumford: Rockin’ the London Marathon

Mumford & Sons frontman Marcus Mumford strummed up some serious support at the 2023 London Marathon, finishing in 3:51:25 for the Grenfell Foundation, where he’s a board trustee. He and wife Carey Mulligan even pledged to match donations up to £50k - talk about couple goals!

Marcus joked on Instagram about not making “too much of a t*t” of himself during the race. Safe to say, with that time, he’s got nothing to worry about - he’s running circles around most of us on a Santa Monica pier jog.

Alicia Keys: Soulful Strides in NYC

Grammy queen Alicia Keys brought her soulful vibes to the 2015 New York City Marathon, crossing the line in 5:50:52 while raising money for Keep a Child Alive. She shared her training deets with Refinery29, revealing her playlist wasn’t music - it was audiobooks like Toni Morrison’s 'God Help The Child.'

“I never know what’s coming next, and it distracts me enough to grind through all those miles without even noticing,” Alicia dished about her unique marathon mindset.

That’s some next-level mental game - something even us Hollywood Hills hikers could learn from!

Chelsea Clinton: Speedy and Stealthy

Former first daughter Chelsea Clinton’s no stranger to the marathon game. She first ran the NYC Marathon in 2021 under an alias (sneaky, girl!), clocking 3:59:09, and upped her game in 2024 with a stellar 3:45:51 for Every Mother Counts.

She celebrated with a cute finish-line pic alongside mom Hillary and a pal. That’s some serious family support - the kind of squad goals we see at every LA farmer’s market brunch!

Colin Farrell: Heart of Gold in Dublin

Colin Farrell, our fave Penguin actor, debuted at the 2021 Brisbane Marathon with a solid 3:53:14 after just three months of training - not bad for a newbie! Fast forward to 2024, and he ran the Irish Life Dublin Marathon in 4:06:45, pushing his friend Emma Fogarty’s wheelchair for the last four kilometers.

Emma lives with epidermolysis bullosa, aka “butterfly skin,” and each kilometer Colin pushed represented a decade of her life. If that doesn’t scream Hollywood heart, we don’t know what does.

Pamela Anderson: Baywatch to Marathon Babe

Pamela Anderson traded her iconic red swimsuit for running shoes at the 2013 New York City Marathon, finishing in 5:41:03. The Baywatch star, who wasn’t even a runner before this, did it for Sean Penn’s J/P Haitian Relief Organization, supporting Haiti post-2010 earthquake.

Post-race, she shared a hilarious snap of herself in bed, surrounded by ice packs. That’s the kind of realness we love - straight outta a Malibu recovery sesh!

Oprah Winfrey: Inspiring Runners Everywhere

Last but never least, Oprah Winfrey took on the 1994 Marine Corps Marathon in D.C., finishing in 4:29:15. She turned her training into must-see TV on 'The Oprah Winfrey Show,' motivating a whole generation of beginners with slogans like “Beat Oprah” and “if Oprah can do it.”

That’s the kind of energy we feel at every LA yoga studio or juice bar. Oprah’s proof that with grit, anyone can go the distance - even if Harry’s still got her beat on speed!

Who’s the Fastest in Tinseltown?

So, where does Harry Styles land in this star-studded sprint? With his 2:59:13, he’s smoking the competition - no one on this list comes close to breaking that sub-3-hour barrier. That’s some serious West Hollywood workout inspo right there.

From Chelsea Clinton’s stealthy speed to Oprah’s iconic inspo, these celebs prove marathons aren’t just for athletes - they’re for anyone with heart and hustle. Who’s your fave celeb runner? Drop it in the comments, and let’s keep this convo rolling like a Sunset Strip cruise!
