Carole Radziwill Runs Her First New York City Marathon as a Real Housewife Cheers Her On
Some familiar faces came out to support The Real Housewives of New York City author's big day.
What did you do this weekend? Well, few probably achieved something quite as impressive as Carole Radziwill.
After months of training, Carole ran the New York City Marathon on Sunday. The Real Housewives of New York City author completed the 26-mile course around the Big Apple in 6 hours, 42 minutes, and 6 seconds, according to her results page on the New York Road Runners website.
Shalane Flanagan became the first American woman to win the New York City Marathon since 1977 with a time of 2 hours, 26 minutes, and 53 seconds. Geoffrey Kamworor of Kenya was the top male runner with a time of 2 hours, 10 minutes, and 53 seconds.
Carole spent the hours leading up to the big race running into the likes of Tiki Barber and Olympic runner Roberto Mandje.

Carole's RHONY pal Tinsley Mortimer and Adam Kenworthy, whose relationship with Carole cooled this summer, came out to support her on the rainy Sunday, as well as other friends and family.

Carole looked like a champion as she crossed the finish line. "What an awesome day," she wrote on Twitter, along with a video of her victory. "It’s good to put your mind to something."

The RHONY pal relaxed at home after the race with a foot massage and a "f---ing cold" ice bath while waiting for some pizza. You've earned it, Carole!

Carole, who has never been shy about her disdain for exercise on RHONY, explained why she decided to participate in this year's New York City marathon — her first marathon ever — during an interview with Runner's World in June. “As I got into my 50s, I didn’t feel as strong as I did in previous decades,” she said. “I’ve never been one to just go to the gym and exercise, so I needed a goal.”
The animal lover ran the marathon on behalf of the North Shore Animal League, the shelter from where she adopted her two cats. Carole raised more than $3,600, according to her fundraising page.
