ISU hurdler gets 3rd place in Live w/ Regis and Kelly's High-Heel-a-thon

[mrsbrianhos]

Her name is Ardith Johnson. No idea when she attended ISU. But when they interviewed her after the race, she said she ran track (hurdles) at ISU.

It was a race 150 yards (meters?) I don't remember, in high heels. She won $2,500. And the 1st place chick got $25,000!!!


oh, yeah.... the minimum heel height, 3 inches!

How can you do that without breaking ankles?

How can you do that without breaking ankles?

My guess would be walk/run on the toe part of the shoe. Stopping I think would be the hard part...

Just registered on this site in order to respond to this thread.....

Ardith Johnson is from Galesburg, IL....25 yrs. old and graduated from high school in 2001.....that's when she started ISU.
She was a sprinter in jr high and high school, also.
She's a bright, multi-talented girl that's climbing the ladder of the fashion industry in New York.

She was my daughter's best friend from grade school on. We were thrilled to see her standing right next to Kelly R at the start of the race......

Way to represent, Ardith.......Go Galesburg!

P.S. Here's a link to the R&K clip from their website. This clip and the next one, chronologically, are the two best clips of Ardith.

Can't we ever get a 1st place finish.

Last night I saw a girl turn the wrong way down the one way street in front of my place and get pulled over. She was getting all the DUI tests and the cop asked if she wanted to take off her three inch heels before she walked the line.
She snapped back "I can do it IN my heels!"

Apparently not because she did it barefoot and still must have failed since they took her away in cuffs.
