I don't know if your like me not that interested in medals like for 10ks Halfs even some marathons. Things like VLM yes and Disney Marathon, Foxy spinning medals the Grim Reaper all nice to keep but I've got a collection of 'tat' from stuff like Bushey Quarter Marathon, St Albans Runathon (ok I made that up) what is the point I'd much rather a mars bar, decent tee shirt or Stone Paperweight (Snowdon).
What does everyone else think ?

I too like my big event medals, but I prefer a nice tshirt I can wear running (not like the crud you now get from VLM). Maybe rather than a medal they can offer free photos?

I agree - or a mug - Penny Lane striders used to give you a mug, but they don't any more. Or something - anything - else.
I believe Birchwood 10k give you a towel instead - which sounds far better - but I DNS the year I entered because my husband wasn't well enough to mind the kids.

oi you
Excellent idea, for some anyway. I could be in and out of the finish funnel almost without breaking stride, but I'd probably go round again.
