Kids' sports day... David Beckham wins the fathers' race but Victoria is beaten by Stella McCartney

The Beckham brood enjoyed the company of both their mother and father on Wednesday afternoon during the annual summer sports day for kids.
Even David Beckham, 38, proved himself to be the fatherly champion as he won the dad race in front of the whole student body.
However, rather than just stand on the sidelines, Victoria, 39, proved she wasn't too Posh to take part, throwing off her heels to take on fellow celebrity parent Stella McCartney in a foot race.

Sadly Victoria didn't manage to beat Stella, 41, but from the smile on her face, it was all about having fun as she caught back her breath while the crowd of watching parents and kids cheered her on.

Mummy on film: David recorded his wife running in the fun race with Harper watching

Wooden spook: From the looks of the other racers in front of Stella, Victoria came last

No chance: David Beckham grins back at his older, harder trying rival

Didn't stand a chance: Having only just retired from professional football it's safe to say Becks had an unfair advantage

Stylewatch @ the African First Ladies Summit 2013 hosted by Michelle Obama and Laura Bush

The first ladies of Africa came together with Michelle Obama and Laura Bush on Tuesday, kicking off the two-day African First Ladies Summit in Tanzania. Hosted by the George W. Bush Institute, the summit focuses on the health, economic empowerment, and education for African women -- and it's a rare occasion for many of the continent's impressive first ladies to come together on one stage.

Even as the group discussed weighty issues, the importance of appearance -- specifically, the scrutiny of first ladies' appearances, was on everyone's minds. The current FLOTUS and Mrs. Bush joked about the pressure:

MRS. OBAMA: But being able to pursue our passions and do things that not only help our country and connect us with the rest of the world, it's a great privilege. So while people are sort of sorting through our shoes and our hair -- (laughter) -- whether we cut it or not -- MRS. BUSH: Whether we have bangs.
MRS. OBAMA: Whether we have bangs. (Laughter.) Who would have thought? I didn't call that one. (Laughter.)
MRS. BUSH: I said that just because our daughter, Barbara, cut bangs at the same time Michelle did. They commiserated --
MRS. OBAMA: I was doing what Barbara was doing. (Laughter.) I was just following her lead. But we take our bangs and we stand in front of important things that the world needs to see. And eventually, people stop looking at the bangs and they start looking at what we're standing in front of.
MRS. BUSH: We hope.
MRS. OBAMA: They do, and that's the power of our roles.
