Great Cranberry Island 50K Medal 2013_2

Great Cranberry Island 50K Medal (2013)

This is the finisher’s medal for the Great Cranberry Island 50K that was held on July 27, 2013 on Great Cranberry Island, Maine.

Very cool medal that I think is also a buckle. It is pictured on the rock the finishers also receive so they can take a little piece of the island home with them but also probably comes in handy for eating lobster. Here is another view of the medal and rock.

Big Butts 50K Medal 2013

Big Butts 50K Medal? (2013)

This is the swag the finisher’s of the Big Butts 50K received on July 27, 2013 in Clinton, Mississippi.

I don’t even know what to say about this…but tighty whities, a mug, a cigar, and matches sure make for a great conversation starter. Not one I’d usually associate with a race though.

Congrats to RIF #280 Suzy for her 50K PR there!

July was another big month for at least 2 of our RIFers that I know of…who ran a little 500K race across TN…so the standings could change next month! I hope John and George did some racing in July or they are going to be caught!

This month’s random drawing winner is RIF #72 Natalie Torres! We will be sending her a Gone For A Run sign. Don’t forget to submit your points/monthly miles next month for a chance to win! Anyone who submits races or miles or even to say they didn’t race/run because life got in the way is eligible for the drawing. We just want to hear what everyone is up to! We are nosy that way. 😉
