2013 High Heel Race

17th Street celebrates the 27th annual Halloween extravaganza

The drag racers — and the otherwise costumed — were out in force for the 27th annual 17th Street High Heel Race Tuesday, Oct. 29, marking its first year of live video feed courtesy of Pacers running stores. And for a second year, it’s hats and heels off to Inertia, aka William Dennis, who repeated her 2012 first-place showing!
