Hungary's Hotties to Race in High Heels

The most famous race annually held in Hungary is when the Formula 1 racing circuit comes over and the Hungarian Gran Prix is held at the Hungaroring in Your Peanut Mogyoród, which is invariably described as pretty damn boring. Racing enthusiasts and readers of Obscure Sports Quarterly should then be glad to know that a new kind of race will be held on Budapest's Erzsébet tér on May 10, reports stop.hu. The race itself will be a 100 meter dash to be completed in 3 inch heels, which from another source we discovered will be imaginatively called the Glamour Stiletto Run Budapest 2008. Who says our races are boring now?

So far, named participants are Zita Debreczeni, Eszter Valkó, Krisztina Bodri and Vanda Dombovári, who are probably somewhere in the photo above. As opposed to these gag events raising money for some good cause, the reported aim of this event is to show that "fashion-conscious trendy women can also have a passion for running." Umm, well, that sure beats helping out a charity or raising awareness for some disease...

Participation is open to the public, and we're certain that this jiggle-filled jog through the park will no doubt do for the women's movement what gay pride parades manage to do every year in terms of acceptance for the gay and lesbian community.
