High Heel-a-Thon: Some close-ups
posted by: shoesense in Celebrity Shoe Style on July 10th, 2008
On the…um…high heels of Shomore’s post (sorry, couldn’t resist), here’s a shot of what the contestants looked like in yesterday’s High Heel-a-thon, led by Kelly Ripa (who, despite bragging about her high-heel prowess, did NOT win the race):
In her defense, it looks like her heels were at least twice as high as everybody else’s:
No matter! This is still an event that should be featured on the Fear Factor, as far as I’m concerned. Shouldn’t there be less painful ways to donate to charities? Like, say…um…donating money from the comfort of your own home and out of the goodness of your heart? Just saying. (By all means, do donate to March of Dimes, which this event benefited. You can do so in your slippers–try it, it feels SO good!)

This has got to be some kind of a nightmare, some of those heels are so tall that being a woman one can understand that it must be a job to simply walk gracefully in them much less running! I wonder what kind of repurcussion will this exercise bring.

Kelly’s shoes look so good! I saw some similar at Celine which when I tried them on were wonderfully light. I felt I could ran a marathon in them, believe it or not!

We were there! Morgan Williams of the RunningWithHeels.com team was the only one of us doing the actual running in heels, but Angie and myself were there to support her and all the ladies participating in this event!
What a day!

I love the women who sensibly wore athletic socks with their heels! Good thinking, ladies.
