Sprinting In High Heels For A Cause

Rick Young, right, kicks his heels just a little faster than Dusty Wetzler as they compete in the Heels for HEALing Men’s Stiletto Sprint Sunday on 1st Avenue in downtown Spokane, Wash. Some 55 competitors participated in the benefit event with proceeds going to the The Women’s Healing and Empowerment Network. W.H.E.’s resources help survivors of domestic violence. Events for the day also included a costume contest, parade of shoes for auction, marshmallow stomping, and street dancing. (Dan Pelle SR photo essay here)
