All Marathon and Half Marathon finishers receive a finisher's medal!
Click picture to see the 2008 medals close-up!
"Awesome", "fabulous", "is this one of the Beijing medals?" … these were just a few of the comments on our new medals. The marathon version is shiny gold, 2.5 inches in diameter, 7mm thick, and heavy! The Half marathon is 2", and made with an antique silver finish. The medals hang from a relatively new, state-of-the-art, heat-transfer ribbon, that's both dynamic and comfortable. Which one will be yours?!
