Katie is a keen runner and in 2007 ran the New York marathon in the impressive time of five hours 29 minutes. Saying that, if we knew Tom Cruise was waiting at the end, we’d probably run that fast too.

Katie Holmes was a straight-A student who loved cheerleading and reading. You probably won’t catch her waving pom-poms now but she still loves a good novel and says: "I never feel lonely in a bookstore."
Rex FeaturesThe Holiday
Privacy is the order of the day when Katie heads on holiday. Recently the Cruises enjoyed a day on Ilha dos Porcos Grande, a private island off the coast of Brazil, and they often go camping. “We love the outdoors,” Katie said.
