Largest Medal on the Atlantic Coast
 |
Why do you run? Some of you run for fun, some for the sense of accomplishment and some just to get in shape. But most of you run for the MEDAL. And do we have a medal for you. Not only is it beautifully crafted as a surfboard reflecting the beachtown theme of the city, but it is 8 inches long! You would need to get in shape just to carry the weight of this medal around your neck! But we did not stop there, we figure this finisher medal is a source of pride, and although some runners will frame their medals or display them at the office or home, some of you will get home and place the medal in a drawer only to look at it once in a |

while. So we decided to introduce functionality and "displayability" and carve a very cleverly placed sharkbite on the medal, giving it the dual function of a bottle opener you can use every day or while entertaining friends. What a better way to remind yourself of your accomplishment or boast to your friends. | |
