On Oct. 24, New York City Road Runners announced its list of celebrity runners and attendees for the upcoming TCS New York City Marathon on Nov. 6. The marathon entices celebrities and the glitz and glamor that comes with them annually to run for charities and causes.

The Brotherhood Sister Sol will be supported by marathon newcomer and The Office and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt star Ellie Kemper.
Many celebrities and personalities are returning to the marathon this year, having an impressive streak of years past behind them. Former running back of the New York Giants Tiki Barber will be running his eighth marathon this year. The producer and host of MTV’s Catfish Nev Schulman is back for his sixth.
