This is the 100K buckle for the Javelina Jundred that was held on October 27-28, 2012 in Fountain Hills, Arizona.

The 100K buckle is given to runners who complete at least 4 loops (15.4 miles) of the Javelina Jundred but do not complete the 100 Miler. I think it’s a fun buckle. I am biased though since it’s my first! 🙂
