Planning to do a frame for our medals do that we can show both sides along with the numbers. Will be putting the itab somewhere within the design. Sadly no race day pics ( pre sunrise and wet ) to include but, those mile markers are still wrapped around several lampposts in the ‘village’ just waiting for a selfie.

I had a ballot place and was a bit sniffy about the virtual having trained twice for a race that didnt really end up happening the way I wanted but ended up really enjoying it and glad we did have the chance to get the medal etc. At the small race I did, people wore their official numbers on the front and then there were quite a few (including me) wearing London numbers on the back. Even saw a few in fancy dress which was quite a sight splashing through mud on the North Downs Way. Lots of 'go on London' which was really cheering.

GimmeMedals Oct 2020 6:01pm, 21 Oct 2020 18,308 posts	0 GimmeMedals I'm pleased so many of you have got your packages today. There's been quite a number delivered! The paper envelopes are not robust enough for such precious contents. Mine was ripped when it arrived but not enough to enable anything to fall out. The design needs a re-think if there is going to be a virtual option in future years.
