This creative and unique finisher’s medal is from the 2011 Flying Pig Marathon in Cincinnati, Ohio that took place on May 1, 2011.
It was the first two-sided medal that I have received for finishing a race. The front had a ‘flying pig’ with the phrase “I HIGHTAILED IT,” and the back of the medal had the backside of a ‘flying pig’ with the phrase “I MADE A RUN FOR IT” with the skyline of Cincy in the background.
The decorative ribbon (see photo below) completed this first class medal. The ribbon was thick, with flying piggies, and the name of the race on it.

[…] unique yet not over-the-top cheesy with gimmicks. And all medals, like the Flying Pig Marathon (see HERE) medal, that have a cool back side get extra points for creativity. #gallery-1 { margin: auto; } […]
