NY City Marathon announced its 2021 celebrity lineup - how many of these 'stars' have you heard of?

Abby Wambach, Christy Turllington, Tiki Barber, Willie Geist. End of list.

Are all of the "Olympic Gold Medalist" soccer players?

Turlington and Barber.

ESPN is a network of no-names.

For me:

·       Abby Wambach ·       Ben Lovett·       Christy Turlington·       Kelli O'Hara ·       Marcus Mumford ·       Nicole Briscoe

·       Ryan Briscoe ·       Tiki Barber·       Willie Geist

Mumford and Sons is an arena touring band but other that and maybe Tiki Barber none of those people are really celebrities. Reality TV contestants and news media types are hardly 'stars.'

Kelli O'Hara's the leading musical theater actress in the country and a Tony Awardwinner. You should have heard of her.

On the other hand, I wonder how many times they want to brag about Tiki Barber, who never breaks 5:00.
