I watched an interview with Sarah Jessica Parker, who said that after years of running around NY in heels, that one day she was running and actually ended up tearing a tendon in her foot. High heels have their place, but I am by no means impressed with people who wear them daily. They end up having some of the ugliest feet. Bones protruding here and there, completely nasty. Confused

Running in high heels is not a fun thing. You try running in them across the airport when you are late catching a plane annnnd you try running across Grand Central Station or the Bus Port in NY and down the escalators to catch a ride before you miss it. I am talking 4 inch heels.

I thought I would break my leg. I think I spent my life running... Wink

I think this video is funny though. They seemed to enjoy it and they were not in any pain... Laughing

I had trouble a couple different times, while wearing platforms, once I rolled my ankle while walking between some trees, and then on another occasion I stepped in mud or some other muck on the school lawn, and entered one of my classes, and quickly lost traction and slid forward right into the leg of some guys desk, and then ended up tripping forward over that leg and skinning my knee on the carpet. Laughing Laughing Total douche bag moment! It was so humiliating that my friends refused to look my general direction, for fear that I would become angry at the fact that they were laughing.

You are funny..One time getting out of a car with eggs in my grocery bag. I tripped on a rock while wearing high heels and fell, of course I broke the eggs all over the parking lot to my apartment and when I got up from the ground one of my heels had slid in the slimmy egg and well, have you ever heard of the Chinese splits? Ouchhhh! d'oh!
