Mayer and Minka -- Dunzo?

John Mayer and Minka Kelly have called off their brief romance, reports People. They split over a month ago, but still remain friends.

Kelly had been spotted at Mayer's December concert in L.A and even went with him to the after-party where they were supposedly "cozy." TMZ spotted her just a couple days ago -- very coy indeed about her relationship -- now we know why.

Says a pal of Minka's, "Minka told a couple friends that she and John had broken up, but she really didn't want to tell anyone."

Meanwhile, she did a little running of her own last night ... away from the L.A. premiere of her new movie, "Mad Money." OK! mag is quoting Katie's spokesperson as saying, "She's not running the Boston Marathon." We'll see.
