The amount of Disney medals is amazing. I assume from your avatar you are from Florida. That really is impressive.

Those aren't mine, lol. Our ladies running group has been posting their methods of displaying all their medals. Some are impressive in the number of medals they've displayed...and still have boxes of them stuffed under the bed or in a closet.

Good assumption, as my screen name would lead people to think differently.

I HIGHLY recommend Allied on etsy. I have 2 racks from them currently

I like their bib displays. May buy one or two...my race bibs are currently stuck in a file folder or folded in the old paper guide.

Well, I use a very space efficient Nike box for my medals. There is a bit of paper towel involved to prevent the medals from damaging each other (#madeinChina)

The entire row of Dutch medals is easy recognisable due to its way smaller size.

I once displayed all my medals just for myself to check my entire collection.

Sorted by year, distance and split for location. (WDW on the left, Paris on the right. The castle to Chateau challenge to divide them ;-)

And all my bibs are sorted in a different nike box. I once counted all my miles in Dutch and runDisney races, but don't have those numbers written down. I stopped counting the shorter (5K & 10K) races.

I remember that Castle to Chateau medal. I believe both Don and I were jealous.

That reminds me I better secure my virtual bibs...

Thanks! I’ll definitely go with them!

Thanks! I’ll definitely go with them!

Now I’m looking at these too! Do you all secretly run Etsy shops?

YOU WILL BUY AN ETSY MEDAL HANGER, YOU WILL BUY AN ETSY MEDAL HANGER, YOU WILL BUY AN ETSY MEDAL HANGER!!

What are you talking about?

So we don't hijack the SW thread with talk...and photos...of medal hangers.

Medal Hangers, Bib Displays and ALL Running Accessories

Thought I'd start a thread to talk about other running topics. Especially my current obsession with sparkly skirts and compression socks.

Since we are sharing photos of our displays, here is mine at the moment.

Very nice idea . I didn’t mean to derail the thread.

It wasn't just you....

I've been accused of derailing a thread or two, right @Swissmiss?

I'm about as artsy craftsy as my cat....and all she does is sleep!

 

[Texas84]

What is the size on that?

I’m eyeing the Kessel one.

30"

You do know you don‘t have to be jealous, right? You could earn one yourself (just sayin‘ )

Never by me. I believe in the ebb and flow in conversations/posts - eventually topics come back around to where they should be

Running Star Wars and the Paris run weekend in 2021 would give you the 5th edition of both, inclusing the 5th C2C medal ;-)

Thanks!

As of 2:04 the half is back...everything else is the same as my last update.

As of 1:29 AM

10K is gone
Half Marathon is gone
Rival Run challenge is gone
Kessel Run challenge (the one with everything) is gone

5K is still available
Kessel Run challenge (the one with virtual and half) is available
Virtual Half Marathon is available

I don’t think they are going to last much longer.

Is this directed at me? I've got a cruise with my ladies that probably falls race weekend next year.

I have another question regarding 2022.

So, usually their is a clear time to hold a race (since their is a clear weekend to have it) in 2022 this isn’t the case except for two instances.

Easter in 2022- April 17th

Palm Sunday- April 10th (usually they don’t hold races around Palm Sunday) believe me I’ve looked

Orthodox Easter- April 24th (same deal with Palm Sunday)

Since this is the case I can only see two possible weekends to hold it.

May 31st- April 4th (only problem I see with this is that it starts in March, has that ever happened?)

April 21 - 25th (problem here is that it overlaps with Orthodox Easter) not sure if that matters

What does everyone think is the most likely one for them to choose?

EDIT: I guess they could pick the weekend with Palm Sunday but I doubt it. I don’t believe that has ever happened.
