The three year old event known as the “Stiletto Run” takes place on a popular fashion street in Amsterdam. The 380-yard race requires a 3 1/2 inch minimum heel height and the winner receives a $15,000 prize for their bravery.

The friendly competition has quickly grown in popularity and spawned imitation races in Germany, Sweden, Poland and Russia.
