Here is a croc of a medal. The finisher’s medal from the 2012 5 Points of Life Marathon that was held February 18, 2012 in Jacksonville, Florida.

Good job to the organizers on this bling. I really like the shape, size, design, and alligator of course.

This race did a good job of not doing anything ass-backwards or did they…

Here is a sneak peak at the 2012 Little Rock Marathon medal. The race will be held on March 4, 2012.  This year is the 10th anniversary of the race.

The Little Rock Marathon is a very popular marathon in the South and has won several awards over the past few years.

However, this is by far the tackiest medal I’ve ever laid eyes on.  I know that is partly by design but this thing is Liberace gaudy.  The mirror ball within Thor’s shield is a spinner.

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.

WOW! Talk about a beautiful finisher’s medal. Here is the bling from the this year’s 26.2 With Donna Marathon that took place in Jacksonville, Florida on February 12, 2012.

Medals don’t get much more beautiful than this one.  This marathon does a great job of raising awareness and money for breast cancer.

Here is the finisher’s medal from the 2012 Louisville’s Lovin’ The Hills 50K that was held on February 11, 2012 in Louisville.

Simple and pure wood medal in the shape of a heart which is a good reminder that Valentine’s Day is on Tuesday.

Lots of real hills and lots of fun make up the challenging LLTH 50K.
