This is the medal for the Disneyland Half Marathon that took place on September 2, 2012 in Anaheim, California at the Happiest Place On Earth!

I love this medal! It’s so big and shiny. 🙂 And I love that it has Sleeping Beauty’s Castle on it since that and the Matterhorn are what I associate most with Disneyland here in California. Here’s another view of it:

This is the Sub 24 buckle for the Lean Horse 100 that was held on August 25-26, 2012 in Spearfish, South Dakota.

This is a beautiful buckle. It has amazing detail and I love the image of the horse!

This Sub 24 buckle was earned by RIF #1 Joshua Holmes who PR’d by over an hour and shaved almost 4 hours off his time from last year! He totally rocked it. Congratulations Joshua!

This is the medal for Pikes Peak Marathon that was held on August 19, 2012 in Manitou Springs, Colorado.

The marathon starts at 6,300′ and climbs to 14,115′ at the summit before the runners return back to the start! Insane! It’s America’s Ultimate Challenge all right. I like how the medal incorporated the mountains into the shape and that it declared the marathon’s bada$$ery on the back.

Congratulations to RIF #83 Brad Box and RIF #1 Joshua Holmes for completing such a tough marathon!

Here’s one last photo of the medal:
