J-Lo does triathlon to raise money for children hospital after leaving Project Runway

It was a star-studded triathlon competition in LA this past Sunday. Matthew McConaughey, Felicity Huffman, William H Macy, John Hamm, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Jon Cryer, Monique Coleman, Scott Foley and Anna Kournikova were among the celebrities who plunged into ocean for a half-mile swim, biked for 18 miles and than ran for another 4 miles. Jennifer Lopez, just seven months out of her pregnancy, competed alongside other  celebrities and completed the tough course in reasonable 2 hours, 23 minutes and 28 seconds.

The event raised $950,000 for LA children's hospital.

A couple of days before triathlon, J-Lo pulled out from judging Project Runway. There are rumours circulating that Lopez had conflicts with the makers of the show. Her official reason for bowing out was “foot injury” that Lopez said she needed to rehab in time for triathlon competition. Don’t get me wrong, but I doubt Jennifer Lopez would ditch an opportunity to make appearance in a prime-time show in order to compete in a one day local fundraising event. I wish she would have chosen a reason other than fundraising for sick children to conceal her grudge against project Runway producers.
