Default Running in 'HEELS?
I admit that at the age of 54 I seldom run anymore let alone in heels.

How about the rest of you? Do you/can you run in your Stilettos without something unfortunate happening?


Ciao!

Not if I can possibly help it !
As I am nearly always wearing a calf-length straight skirt when I'm wearing heels, the last thing I want to do is start running.
Unfortunately there are times when I need to make a quick exit. Running in high heels hurts my bad knee and in the past I have damaged skirts and twisted my ankle doing it.

I've never had a problem running in heels, even in my 5 inchers. I think the 5 1/2 inchers would be a challenge though - I normally go carefully in those!

I remember buying my very first girlfriend her very first truly high (4") heels. We were both 15. One of of the first things she said triumphantly was "Look! I can even run in them!".

Since then I've seen many girls running in high heels, Usually they've managed it quite OK, but I've seen one or two topple over and collapse in a heap. Once, in St. Ives in Cornwall, a teenage girl was trying to run along the bumpy Cornish cobblestones in a pair of 7" medium-thickness heels with 2" platforms and came a real cropper - flat on her face! Instead of helping her up and seeing if she had hurt herself, an old Cornishman went over and prodded her with his walking stick saying "T'was yer own fault fer wearing them silly newfangled shoes of yourn!".

Cheerfully yours, Heelfan

Quick sprints are all I prefer. Anything more than that is more than I'd care to run. :)
