Petry ran the combine’s vaunted 40-yard dash in 5.98 seconds, a time that matches some NFL players. After completing the dash, she made a point to show off her heeled boots to the camera that filmed her.

The reporter later took to Twitter, joking that she’s looking for a new footwear sponsor following her performance. She also retweeted several humorous Tweets sent her way.
