When my friend Matthew told me he was racing in the High Heel Dash for the Aegis Foundation, I know I had a perplexed look on my face.  The curiosity got the best of me and so I had to check it out.

Matthew is the marketing manager for the W Minneapolis – The Foshay and one of his best traits is being an active “citizen of his community”.  His participation with the High Heel Dash is just one example.

He added duct tape to his heels, as he couldn’t risk an injury since his softball team heads to Chicago for the World Series very soon.

My friend Rachel also raced.  It was apparent that the women racing took it very seriously!

And they’re off!

He placed a very respectable third place!  Way to go Matthew!
