The Streets’ Mike Skinner is set to run the New York marathon.
Skinner made the revelation on his official blog, saying he is looking for Reebok to sponsor him on the November 5 run.
He said: "Spoke to Reebok about things and I've decided to run the New York Marathon I know it seems a bit long but if people do it dressed as milk cartons it can't be that hard, right?"
Lance Armstrong is also running the 26 mile race around the Big Apple.
