One of the most distinguishable marathon medals on the circuit. Here is the 2012 Mercedes Marathon medal that was given out on February 12, 2012 in Birmingham, Alabama.
This bling will remind you of your youth when your buddies were yanking Mercedes hood ornaments off of cars and wearing them around their necks to junior high study hall. Unlike then, those that received this pretty piece on Sunday worked hard to earn it.

Here is the colorful and beautiful finisher’s medal from the 2012 Maui Oceanfront Marathon held in Maui, Hawai’i every January.
The medal is gold with a pink and light blue Uhu – Parrot fish on it. Simple, yet nice, and related to Hawaii’s rich underwater culture.
It’s a wonderful marathon held on a beautiful road course that runs right alongside the beach for almost all of the race. Temperatures can get high during the second half of the race as the sun comes up.

The inaugural Louisiana Marathon took place on January 15, 2012 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The race had a great turnout for a first year event and seemed to be extremely well put on.
Here is a look at the finisher’s medal from the Louisiana Marathon.
It’s rather simply, no fancy bells or whistles, but is well done with the footprint being composed of a cypress tree, the state tree of Louisiana, within it.
