The 2021 New York City Marathon saw its fair share of celebs take on the 26.2 mile-long course this year, from models like Christy Turlington Burns to Tony award-winning actress Kelli O'Hara. But this year also saw a ton of Bachelor Nation stars get their sweat on—including quite a few former Bachelors and Bachelorettes.

Seven familiar faces got all dressed up in their best running gear to support different charity organizations as they ran on Sunday, and the behind-the-scenes evidence is all kinds of wholesome. So, how'd they do?

Here are all the details on your ABC faves, including their marathon times:

The cutest couple in Bachelor Nation took on the race together, from start to finish. This was Tayshia's first-ever marathon, and she's been posting snaps from her training sessions on Instagram for months. But her fiancè Zac is no newbie—this race was his eighth, per Us Weekly.

In a recent Instagram post, Tayshia summed up her training experience: "I will admit, training for this has been tough and far from what I imagined, but that’s life, right? All excuses aside I’m still proud of myself for showing up when I could," she wrote.

"Whether it would be running bright n early or late at night, right after getting off an 8 hr flight, in the rain, on a hotel treadmill while traveling for work, or after filming all night long! No matter the condition or situation, I was committed to getting it done however or wherever I could, and because of that I can go into Sunday’s race with pride.”

“My marathon time isn’t going to be groundbreaking and I’m pretty sure I’ll be cursing my way through some of it haha, but at the end of the day this isn’t about me," she continued. "I’m doing this for something bigger, and I can’t thank you enough for all the support you guys have given me!"

"YOU are part of the reason that I am motivated and inspired to work harder, keep showing up, and cross that finish line! It’s an honor running for team World Vision. Every step, every mile on Sunday, will be a representation of a higher purpose! For every child, life in all its fullness. Thank you for changing the world with me!” she finished.

Tayshia ran to support World Vision, a Christian humanitarian aid organization that helps fight poverty and injustice. She and Zac finished together with a time of 4:40:24 (not bad!).

Matt James and Tyler Cameron

The former Bachelor teamed up with Bachelorette Hannah Brown's runner-up to tackle the tough city course. Tyler was running for his own charity—the Andrea Cameron Foundation, which he started in honor of his mother after she died of a brain aneurysm in February 2020, per Us Weekly.

Tyler clocked in at 5:02:16, while Matt finished around 5:02:23. And in an Instagram Story clip the morning of the race, Tyler did everything he could to get Matt out of bed as early as possible: "It’s Marathon Sunday, it’s Marathon Sunday, I need you to wake up," he said. “We’ve got to leave in 10 minutes.” (Looks like they made it on time, after all, according to this post from @bachelornation.scoop:)

Dr. Joe Park

Leave it to Dr. Joe to blow his Bachelor Nation competitors out of the water! The Bachelor in Paradise alum absolutely crushed the race with a time of 3:21:20. "The NYC Marathon 2021 was an electric⚡️, magical ✨, wild🦦 ride…but what I’ll miss most is the carb loading. 🍝🍪🍞🍦," he wrote in an Instagram post.

FYI, this year's winner, Albert Korir, clocked in at 2:08:22, according to race results. So Joe absolutely killed it!

Fellow BiP alum Kendall Long commented, "👏👏👏👏So amazing!" Joe raced for Achilles International, which creates inclusive athletic programs for disabled athletes.

Peter Weber

Another former Bachelor also strapped on his sneakers to compete alongside his Bachelor Nation buds. Peter ran by himself and finished with a time of 5:16:09 (not far behind Matt and Tyler!).

"Running the NYC Marathon was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I had no idea what to expect but I am so damn happy I did it," Peter wrote in an Instagram caption.

"There is literally nothing you can’t accomplish in this life if you put your mind to it and decide to never give up. New York, you are truly one of a kind. The energy you fed us runners all 26.2 miles was pure magic. Thank you 🙏🏻."

And, Dr. Joe totally approved in the comments: "Wooo!! Proud of you man!! You gutted through that! 💪🏽🤘🏽👏🏽," he wrote.

Dustin Kendrick

Dustin competed on Hannah Brown's Bachelorette season and made it about halfway before being eliminated—but he totally conquered the marathon with a time of 4:21:42.

"'There will be days you don’t think you can run a marathon. There will be a lifetime of knowing you have,'" he captioned a super cute montage of running photos on Instagram.
