Pamela Anderson New York City Marathon: How Sexy Will It Be Running 26-Plus Miles On Streets And Bridges Compared To Sunny-Side Sand On 'Baywatch' As Former Playmate Does It For Haiti

Pamela Anderson New York City Marathon: The blonde beauty will run the streets of New York for 26.219 miles throughout the city and its five boroughs instead of the beaches of sunny-California on "Baywatch."

"I'm running the New York Marathon this year and raising funds for the J/P Haitian Relief Organization," Pamela Anderson tweeted last week.

The Canadian-American model, producer, author, activist, and former showgirl will give it a go for a good cause for the race that dates back to 1970. This will be Pamela Anderson's first New York City Marathon on Nov. 3.

Anderson says she is trying to raise $500,000 for the organization, co-founded by Sean Penn, which is an organization working to bring sustainable programs to the Haiti following the earthquake of 2010.

"I have known Sean a long time. I love him dearly," Anderson said.

It was an earthquake that affected over three million people because there were at least 52 aftershocks that measured at 4.5 or greater on the Richter-Scale. The government of Haiti estimated that 250,000 residences and 30,000 commercial buildings had collapsed or were severely damaged. Death toll estimates range from 100,000 to 159,000.

"Poorest Country in the Western Hemisphere. Just a one-hour flight from Miami. How are we not more involved? Desperate need for things we take for granted - clean water, safe school structures, medical facilities, emergency rooms, reforestation possibilities - conservation, education. Organic products allowed into Free trade market (mangoes, coffee, vanilla, vegetables). The opportunities are endless," Anderson said on her fundraising page.

The 46-year-old who has stared in homemade pornos with boyfriends, cartoon shows, a few seasons on "Home Improvement" as well former Playmate of the Month for Playboy.

"I'm running the New York Marathon ... (Can you believe it?). Together, I hope we can raise at least $500,000 and make a huge impact in this magical country ... keep checking my page and Facebook and Twitter to find out about all sorts of contests I'll be running from now until November - I will give updates on my training too," Anderson said on her fundraising page.
