How To Run In Heels

Good for:
- Hustling backstage during a tight show with short changes
- Improving your overall balance in heels (Running in heels will turn you into a pro at walking in in heels, trust me.)
-Developing toned calves
-Catching a bus or hailing a taxi
-Rushing through busy city streets while also not getting your stiletto caught in a storm drain or grate.
-Fleeing your enemies

VERY IMPORTANT:
- Do not do this unless you have strong ankles, core strength, and intermediate comfort in heels (This is a one--way ticket to Sprained-ankle-ville if you're trying to run without first learning how to walk with basic form and proper posture.)
-PLEASE wear the right size shoe. Too big a shoe can cause your footwear to slip off, which can be dangerous. If possible, select a shoe with a strap so your foot is firmly attached.
- Practice with a shoe you don't care too much about. It's going to add some wear and tear, especially along the bottoms.
-Don't run for too long... running in heels keeps your achilles "shortened" due to the heel being kept up. When you're done, over-flex both feet with some achilles stretches to re-extend and restore them again.
