A new event?

From Expatica:
BERLIN - Rapidly clicking her high-heeled shoes, Nadine Sonnabend, 24, ran along 80 metres of a Berlin street Saturday to claim a 10,000-euro shopping voucher offered by a fashion magazine.
...
Race organizers timed her at 12.0 seconds. Competitors all had to wear heels of seven centimetres or higher.
What, no automatic timing?
