Spanish man sprints 100 metres in high heels, creates world record

Running in heels is no easy task, but for Christian Roberto López Rodríguez from Spain it appears to be a cakewalk. On Friday, the Guinness World Records (GWR) announced that Rodríguez finished the 100-metre sprint in 12.82 seconds while wearing high heels. With this, he has created the world record for the “fastest 100 metres in high heels (male)”.

This record was only 3.24 seconds slower than Usain Bolt’s 100-metre sprint world record made in 2009. The guidelines required Rodriguez to wear a heel that is at least seven centimetres high and only 1.5 cm wide at the tip.

Talking to GWR, he said, “The preparation was very exhaustive and specific. I find it very challenging to be able to run in high heels at high speed. In Spain there are races like this, and they have always gone well for me”. Rodríguez also added that with this record he wants to show that Type 1 diabetics like himself “can do as much or more things than people without diabetes.”
