There’s a nice blog on the website. We love that Andrew the owner is just as obsessed with medals as we are.
Finally, the medals?
The first two medals set a great tone for the future of My Race. We love the Batman and Superman inspired bling which reminds us a bit of the 5k medals you get at a runDisney race. The latest additions of the D-Day medal and the Spock Star Trek inspired bling are also great next steps.
