Katie Holmes: Photo Credit: Doug Meszler / WENNWhile Britney Spears wastes her days eating fried chicken and sipping on Starbucks frappuccinos, Katie Holmes is keeping fit - running a 26.2-mile marathon in NYC yesterday.

The 28-year-old mom ditched her Jimmy Choo heels for a pair of white runners as she joined thousands of other athletes (including fellow celeb, Lance Armstrong, who completed the race in an impressive 2:46:42) in the historic race.

And how did Katie do?

The Dawson's Creek star completed the course in a respectable 5:29:58, placing 34, 195^th out of approximately 39,000 applicants. Not bad for her first run!

But where was hubby Tom in all of this?

Despite a very hectic schedule, the Lions for Lambs star wouldn't let Katie out of his site for more than five hours. Mr. Cruise and daughter Suri waited anxiously to greet Mommy at the finish line.

Is it just me or are they actually a cute family?

Perhaps Brit could learn a few things from Katie.

A great mom, a supportive wife and a healthy lifestyle - it's easy for Katie, why is it so hard for Britney?

I think Katie is adorable, and classy, and sweet, and talented, and I could say lots of wonderful things about her. BUT, I don't believe she ran the entire marathon. In fact, there are so many sites that can prove she had a male stand in for most of it, that I think she and Tom should be called on it!!! No one runs a marathon and turns around wearing their Jimmy Choo heals the same night. She is only pictured at the starting line and the finishing. Her stand in is wearing a number that is from another year and isn't even registered for this marathon....but, he is pictured at every check point with Katie's foot monitor. Speculation is...Tom needed the publicity for his movie premiere...SICK!!! Speaking of Jimmy Choo heals...Katie always spends a fortune on her shoes. Why doesn't she do the same for her daughter??? Suri always has the ugliest sandals on and there are A LOT of adorable shoes for kids out there. Try Pom D'Api sandals! Oh, Suri needs to ditch the baby bottles also. She has one in her hand or mouth in every photo I see her in. She is 2 years old...she should be drinking from a toddler/sippy cup after a year old. I still think Katie is AMAZING!!!
