Joey Graziadei, along with other notable figures from Bachelor Nation, achieved an impressive feat by completing the challenging 26.2 miles of the 2025 New York City Marathon, a milestone reached by less than 1% of the population.

Before taking on the marathon on Sunday, November 2, Graziadei shared his mixed feelings of anticipation and anxiety as he prepared to run alongside fellow Bachelorette season 20 alum Tanner Courtad. “I have to admit, I’m feeling a bit nervous,” he confessed. “It’s my first marathon, so I really have no idea what to expect. In fact, it’s my first race of any kind—I haven’t even run a half marathon with a bib before. There are going to be a lot of firsts this weekend,” Graziadei told Access Hollywood. He also mentioned that his fiancé, Kelsey Anderson, played a significant role in encouraging him to participate in the iconic New York event.

Meanwhile, Zac Clark appeared to have the moral support of his rumored partner, Kaitlyn Bristowe. The former Bachelorette snapped a selfie and celebrated with a toast alongside Serena Pitt, who was there to cheer on her husband, Joe Amabile.

“Watching a marathon is tough work,” Bristowe humorously remarked on her Instagram Story. While their relationship status remains unconfirmed, Bristowe and Clark have been romantically linked since January 2024.

“Spectating a marathon is hard,” Bristowe quipped via her Instagram Story. (Bristowe and Clark have yet to confirm their romance, but have been linked since January 2024.)
