Kelly Ripa kicks up her heels
Kelly Ripa Kicks Up Her Heels
We’ve all heard of celebrity 5K runs and various other athletic events to raise money for charity. But today Kelly Ripa unveiled a whole new way to make a difference.
The blonde morning show host was in New York City’s Central Park for the “Live with Regis and Kelly’s” High Heel-A-Thon to benefit the March of Dimes.
The High Heel-A-Thon consisted of a 150-yard dash, with the competitors wearing- you guessed it- high heels as they ran. To be specific, the shoes had to have a minimum of a three-inch heel to actually compete for the prizes.
Five hundred women and eleven men from almost 40 states showed up to compete, with prizes awarded for first place ($25,000), second place ($5,000) and third place ($2,500). Even the guys got a prize, with the men’s dash winner taking home $1,000.

Kelly Ripa took part in the High Heel-A-Thon while Regis Philbin watched

^ They are used to wearing heels. I can run in heels. It gets easy after years of practice. Plus 150 yards isn't that far.

She's so hot ... if she had an ass she'd be the perfect woman!
Doesn't the woman on the right look like she's saying "Girrrrrl! Where is your ass at?"

She's so cute.
But running in heels? Breaking ankles is so fun!
