SHANGHAI - Shanghai Happy Valley kicked off a 100-meter race for women in high heels on Sunday as part of its activities to celebrate Women's Day, which will fall on March 8.

The women were required to run the race in shoes with 5 centimeter high heels, mixing fashion and beauty, said Yang Yuying from the Administration Department of Shanghai OCT Co Ltd.
