Singer Harry Styles appears to have run the Berlin Marathon in under three hours.

Photos, widely shared online, show the former One Direction star embarking on the race dressed in shorts, brightly coloured trainers, a dark top, sunglasses, and a headband.

The Watermelon Sugar singer, 31, completed the run in two hours, 59 minutes, and 13 seconds, according to the BMW Berlin Marathon app, where users can search for participants' race times by bib number.

The profile associated with Styles's bib number shows he went under the alias Sted Sarandos.

The result follows reports in March that he finished the Tokyo Marathon in three hours, 24 minutes, and seven seconds.

Paralympic gold medallist Richard Whitehead posted a photo of himself and Styles on Instagram and wrote: "2.58 in Berlin with my mate!! Anyone know him!!"

The Berlin Marathon 2025, the route of which passes landmarks including the German parliament, Brandenburg Gate, and Victory Column, was won by Sabastian Sawe in the men's race and Rosemary Wanjiru in the women's.

Styles found fame in the boyband One Direction before striking out as a chart-topping solo artist when the group went on "indefinite hiatus" in 2016.

He last played in concert in Ireland at Slane in 2023.
