Describe the best race medal you’ve ever received and why it’s your fave. ‘The Centurian Runner 50-Mile Grand Slam medal because it’s the size of a dinner plate.’ – Shaun Marsden ‘St Illtyds 50K, because I never ever thought I would finish an ultra.’ – John Bourne ‘I do like the North Carolina Half Marathon medal I got for racing in a hailstorm around a Nascar arena. It spins and lights up.’ – Runnersknees ‘My Thames Path (Harry) Potter medal, because it has so much detail on it.’ – Lisaruns4sanity
