It is Monday once again and I don’t know about you but need some motivation to get through this week. I have been consistent with my running but have totally neglected doing any yoga this week and my body is really feeling it. There are just not enough hours in the day sometimes but I plan to make time this week, I mean I did yoga everyday the whole month of May so I KNOW I can make time if I make it a priority.
Marathon training starts next week so I am going to need lots of motivation of the next 16 weeks to get through it and when I need motivation to run I usually check out my prior race medals which up until this weekend have been stored in a drawer. I mean who isn’t motivated by looking at the bling you have earned by completing races?!?!
This particular picture actually motivates me and the quote I found fits perfectly!!
Show Me The Medals has given me a way to get my medals out of the drawer and in plain sight where I can be motivated by them every day!!!
The one I purchased actually has a shelf on it too!!! Now if my husband and I could agree on where to hang it then I wouldn’t have to have him hold it up so I can take pictures…lol!!! Problems of being married to someone who doesn’t really run races except for the occasional 5K which he only does because I sign him up!
This medal rack is made to last! It comes with instructions for an easy installation and can hold up to 20 medals (it only comes with 10 hooks so you have to purchase additional hooks if you need them)! I am hoping to fill mine up by the end of next year! The racks come in three colors and 12 different phrases so all you have to do is choose the right one for you!
Show Me The Medals is one of the sponsors of my Welcome to Summer Virtual run and is giving one lucky participant a (no shelf added) medal rack of their choice!!
You can check out all their racks on their website.
Disclosure: Show Me The Medals provided one medal rack for a participant of the virtual run. I was not compensated in any other way. I purchased my own medal rack and all opinions expressed in this blog are 100% my own.
How do you display your racing “bling”?

Right now my medals are in a drawer and occasionally Em pulls them out and wears them! I would love to get a hanger! I need to remind myself of what my body can do.

That looks like a great one. I have medals hanging on a wooden bear that I bought in Lake Placid the year I did an Ironman there. Alll the rest (plaques, trophies, etc.) are sitting in a box in my storage room. Kind of sad!

My bling is not displayed and I really need to get one of those racks. They are in my jewelry box and taking up way too much room!

Very nice! I love the different options. I am a new runner and can’t wait to get a few medals so I’ll actually NEED one of these!!

Unfortunately all my medals are wrapped in their ribbons, in a box on my floor because I have nothing to display them on!
Those are great! I can’t wait to have my first medal so i can display it proudly!

Nice way to display them! Right now my medals are all over the place. I do need to display them at some point. And where is another thing for me to think about. Who knows!
