Perky hostess Kelly Ripa donned a pair of high heels yesterday for a…footrace? Kelly and similarly stiletto’d ladies bolted 150 yards amidst a fierce crowd of women competing in the Live with Regis and Kelly High Heel-A-Thon’! The goal was to raise money for the March of Dimes, which is dedicated to preventing birth defects, premature birth and infant mortality. The fierce competition took place in Central Park, New York City yesterday. Kelly did her best to spook her competitors at the starting line!
