The bike ride was wonderful and this week is so busy I’m already wondering how I’m going to fit in my runs. Since December started I’m officially back in 1/2 marathon training mode, which doesn’t really change anything too drastically besides lengthening my long run. This weekend the 5k seems a little scary now, but I know it will be fun because I’m running it with my newly running cousin. She ran the turkey trot like a champ and is slowly getting hooked. :)
As for the girl I coached, she placed 9th at State in Division 5! I am so proud of her and her coach now and I are good friends and he said her race was incredible and for once she put it all out on the line. Amazing!
Anyways, the gift ideas are going to keep coming. How about all those race medals that seem to start collecting after a while. Some may want to leave their medals in a shoebox, but displaying some of your runner’s proudest finishes is important. At Finger Lakes MedalCraft they have garnished up quite a way to display medals including personalized runner’s hanging medal racks.
SWEET medal rack! What a great idea – thanks :)
Wow! That’s cool. I’ve never seen anything like that before…
But you know what I’d really love?? Ideas on what to do with race numbers. I’d love to display them somehow, but cant think of how.. unless I make a scrapbook or something.
Cool. Anyway, I love this Christmas list idea!
I LOVE THAT! Your recommendations just keep getting better. I can’t wait to see what else you come up with for us. :)
maybe someday i will actually run races where i need a medal rack :)
Oooohhhh that’s pretty darn cool! Although at this point in time I only have a few medals so I don’t think I need one just yet. It would be nice to hang my kicks on though HAHA Seriously it would get them off the floor.
Ooh, I’m already a few days behind on your Christmas gift list. Great ideas already!
That’s so funny – I was JUST looking at these..
congrats on your gal!
Those look really cool! Great job to the girl you coached!! I am sure you will do fine in the 5k! 3.1 miles will go by so quick!
Another great idea, thanks!! My bedroom mirror is getting a little crowded.
That’s a great idea – I have a friend in mind for that!
Nice rack. :)
Great job, Coach.
DAMN IT!!! I was scrolling through your comments to see if anyone said “Nice Rack,” and I JUST MISSED IT!!!
Oh well.
That is such a great idea…..I love it!! I think that is an item to go on Santa’s list. I just have nails in my walls for my medals :-}
That’s a good idea..I’m going to look at those right now.
Thanks!
Trust Steve and Beachy!!
Too funny, but seriously that is a great idea!! Oh and nice rack too!
Gawd those guys….LOL…
wow what a neifty little idea!
I am in love with the medal rack. I am so purchasing one!!
Nice rack! Ha!
Seriously, those are adorable.
Ok, now I just can’t not make his sound like a dirty joke.
This would be so great to have in your home gym or office – a great way to motivate yourself on a day when your down and out!
