The 4th Annual Stiletto "Run"
ShoeFly & Celebrate Buffalo are getting ready to host the fourth annual 0.5K Stiletto "Run" to benefit the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance on June 22th, 2011. Thats right--0.5K (point 5K) or half of a kilometer.
ALL ARE WELCOME--We struggled with the correct name as to not exclude those who don't wear stilettos, or those who don't run. In the end, it just came together best as the .5K Stiletto Run.
We use the word "run" loosely as we welcome all fun shoe wearers, walkers or runners--we assume most will be walking. However, true race tradition, we will award First, Second place prizes for the first two women to cross the finish line. First Place Mens, and Best Shoes will also be awarded prizes.
In order to be eligible for placing prizes, "runners" must be registered and complete the race in a shoe with a minimum heel height of 3 inches. Shoes may not be taped to the foot. Heel circumference must be a maximum of 1.25" diameter. No wedges. Heel height will be checked any one who places first, second, or third placerunners after race to qualify win.
All other runners and walkers, wear the most fun shoes (ShoeFly shoes if possible) to complete the run/walk!
