Cynthia Erivo to Daddy Pig, here are the celebrity times for the 2026 London Marathon
Defying gravity was easy, try mile 20 babe
Our queen, Cynthia Erivo, was one of the celebrities running the 2026 London Marathon, and she finished with a pretty decent time. You could say she was… unlimited.
Somehow, between Wicked, her one-woman stage show, musical performances and upcoming films, Cynthia Erivo had time to train for a marathon.
“I think this is pretty successful,” she said after crossing the finishing line. “It’s amazing, oh my god. I don’t even know how many times I heard my name screamed around the course. It was wild and insane.”
Though there was a moment that she feared she wouldn’t complete the race, Cynthia joined other celebrities by powering through. Here are their times.
Joe Wicks – 05:51:54
@justgiving “Is it chocolate?” @The Body Coach Joe Wicks and his daughter shared the cutest moment at the London Marathon finish line 🏅
Though 05:51:54 is nothing to slouch at, fitness freak Joe Wicks is *technically* last on this roundup. That isn’t a comment on his fitness, though, because his running partner might have been holding him back; read on.
Daddy Pig – 05:51:53
@hannah.brelsford go @joewicks !! harry styles are you secretly @Daddypig 🤔 #fyp #londonmarathon #running
Running alongside Joe for the 2026 London Marathon, Daddy Pig – of the Pig Dynasty, father of Peppa – managed to beat him. He was running for the National Deaf Children’s Society.

After running away from his problems on Love Island, Dejon was one of the celebrities barrelling down the London Marathon 2026 track.
Jack O’Connell – 04:41:00

The Oscar-nominated actor, who was running for Alzheimer’s Research UK, came in at 04:41:00. Rumours suggest he screamed “Sammmyyy” once he crossed the finishing line.

Running for Alzheimer’s Research UK, the RuPaul’s Drag Race star not only finished the race, but did it in full drag. Last year, she ran the race in honour of her late friend, The Vivienne.
After the race, she clearly wasn’t tired enough to rest, because she gave a musical performance.
Alexandra Burke – 04:25:03

The X Factor winner ran in support of Parkinson’s UK. She was initially hoping to come in under four hours, but she missed it by a tiny fraction. On to next year!

With a dad like Gordon Ramsay, there was no way that Tilly was not clocking a standout time. She was running for Feeding Britain.

@justgiving @McFLY marathon when? 😉 #mcfly #harryjudd #londonmarathon #runtok
Harry Judd has a long history of dominating sporting events, and the 2026 London Marathon was no different. He almost makes it look easy… almost.
Sabastian Sawe
@bbcsport A moment we thought we’d never see!! 🤯 Sabastian Sawe has become the first person ever to run a marathon in under two hours in race conditions. #LondonMarathon #SabastianSawe #London #WorldRecord #Running
There were tons of former Olympians, athletes, and sporting celebs running the race, but I’ve omitted most from this list to keep it streamlined. That being said, there’s no talking about the 2026 London Marathon without referencing Sabastian Sawe.
Sabastian, a long-distance runner from Kenya, finished in one hour, 59 minutes and 30 seconds!! Actually insane.
