These are the very cool medals for the Gasparilla Distance Classic that was held on February 22 & 23, 2014 in Tampa Florida.

The 15K and 5K were held on Saturday and the 8K and Half Marathon were held on Sunday. The runner’s who completed all 4 races over the weekend also received the Michelob Ultra Challenge. Now that’s a most excellent haul of pirate booty! Congrats to RIF #108 Mark who completed the Ultra Challenge!

Here are a couple more photos of the 5K and Half Marathon medals:

This is the “medal” for the Hot Chocolate 15K that was held on March 24, 2013 in San Diego, California.

This is part of a series that is run across the country. Finishers receive a mug with hot chocolate and goodies to munch on after the race. Laura said she hung this up with her other medals…hopefully it was empty! 😉 If it were mine, it would have been.

This is the “medal” for the Hot Chocolate 15K that was held on November 4, 2012 in Chicago, Illinois.

A mug is totally appropriate for this run. Even better would be if it were filled with hot chocolate and marshmallows at the finish line!

*Update* What do you know…it was! Here is a photo of Dianna drinking her hot chocolate as she enjoys the view of the Sears Tower.

This is the medal for the Miracle Miles 15K Run that was held on September 22, 2012 in Orlando, Florida.

The race benefits the neonatal unit at the Winnie Palmer Hospital and the medal is a great reminder of the race’s goal to raise funds for it.
