High Heel Marathon follow-up

This past sunday morning, a group of us from our church went out to the town of Comasagua to do a children's program for our friend Jose Luis's church. one of our friends randomly had a chipmunk costume and a panda costume, so i wanted you to see this:

Meanwhile, while we were hanging out with the chipmunk and panda, the High Heel Marathon was taking place! i wanted to clarify that the participants were not just walking, to see who could last the longest...they were actually sprinting in high heels, and the fastest 10 girls won free high heels for a year, and a medicine kit from a local pharmacy (i guess to heal their wounded ankles). the point was to raise money. here's a video of the starting line:

Here's another video, a clip from the news channel...be sure to pay attention at the 1:10 mark...theres a great high heel wipeout that you cant miss!
