Stars get running for charity

Emma Stone and Olivia Wilde donned their running shoes on Saturday (05May12) for a charity race in New York to raise money for cancer research.

The actresses teamed up to kick off the Entertainment Industry Foundation's Revlon Run/Walk for Women, an annual fundraiser that donates cash to cancer research, treatment and counselling.

The Big Apple event took on additional poignancy for The Help star Stone after she brought along her mother Krista, a breast cancer survivor.

The pair was photographed together smiling throughout the race and they held hands as they walked through Times Square.
