Harry Styles Completes Berlin Marathon In Under 3 Hours Using Fake Name

Harry Styles ran the 2025 Berlin Marathon on Sunday using the pseudonym “Sted Sarandos,” finishing in 2 hours, 59 minutes, and 13 seconds among 55,000 participants. The 31-year-old former One Direction member wore a headband and sunglasses to avoid attention during the race. Marathon organizers confirmed his participation after a local newspaper first reported his presence. Styles achieved a sub-three-hour time, considered a coveted milestone for marathon runners. Kenya’s Sabastian Sawe won the race in 2 hours, 2 minutes, and 16 seconds. Paralympic gold medalist Richard Whitehead posted an Instagram photo with Styles, writing “2.58 in Berlin with my mate” and joking “Anyone know him!!” Styles also finished the Tokyo Marathon in March in under three-and-a-half hours.
