If you are new to the blog, you might not know my extreme love for race medals and bibs. There might even be a race or two in my running resume that I entered just to get a medal and a bib! I love them!
They serve as my motivation for crossing the finish line and are a reminder of the work I have put into my sport. I also love that the medals/bibs (along with my race recaps on the blog) serve as a memory of all the amazing races I have been able to compete in.
I have been recently putting all my accomplishments on my race board, but in the past year I have added a lot to my beloved board, and it was getting a little crowded.I knew I had to find a new way to display my hardware.
Enter Allied Steel.
(Side Note: If you want to see where this medal hanger is located, check out my apartment tour! )
Allied Steel makes these amazing running medal hangers. They were the answer to my prayers when I didn’t know how to showcase my medals by providing me with this amazing display !
There are a bunch of different designs to choose from on the Allied Steel site. My favorite design is the cityscape with the girl running past it. This was important to me because I have been lucky enough to run a variety of races in a few different cities and states. I hope to only add to that list in the future!
I was also able to add a little custom design to the hanger by having “And Her Little Dog Too” etched into the skyline. My blog has played such an important role in my running because I started running when I started the blog, just a few short years ago. When I think of running, I think of my blog! I have documented all my races, most of my training and all my running experiences on the blog, to me they are one in the same.
Sometimes I like to think to myself “If I never started this blog, would I have ever been able to complete one two marathons in a month this year?”
I don’t know where I would be in terms of being a runner if I didn’t have this blog. I have learned so much from reading other running blogs and I have received so much motivation and inspiration from my readers. It has truly been an amazing experience!
I can’t even believe that since May 2009, I have collected all these medals! I really have only been running seriously since then, so I am very proud of all that I have been able to accomplish since then.
There are 10 medals for lots of different races hanging on the wall, but we can’t forget about the little necklace which is from my first half marathon, which was a very proud moment for me! Got to have that up there!
I seriously love displaying my medals this way. It’s so pretty to have them all hanging side by side, with all the different colors of the ribbons.
This is an amazing gift for runners everywhere! Want to win one for yourself or that runner on your Christmas list?
The amazing people at Allied Steel are providing the winner of this week’s giveaway with a medal hanger of their choosing! So fun!

I'm a follower. Also, I like the "pigs fly" one, because I would never have thought I would be a runner!
Thanks for this offer! I am liking the Bold RUNNER (female). I started running just this year and I told myself that I wouldn't consider myself a "runner" until I hit 6 months of consistent running. I ran my first 10K on my 6 month running anniversary and so know I'm leggit!
Just love your Medal Holder, Wow, and personalized to boot! I seriously think you need to order another one right away for your up and coming races! So practical and your medals look like the colors of the rainbow!
I think my jaw is still on the floor. This is the COOLEST thing! Perfect for holiday season. Look at your accomplishments!
I love these! I have wanted one ever since I first saw them on caitlin's blog–sooo perfect for runners, and your display looks great!
I would get the 'pride is forever' one!
I like the cityscape one. Your medal display looks great!
I follow your blog on Google Reader.
It would be cool to have one with my blog name on it – blogging is one of my main sources of accountability.
Or a completely custom one that has a little turtle on it and says "Do it! NOW!". Those are the runs that make me who I am!
I already follow you on twitter! 🙂
I've liked Allied Steel on FB.
I follow your blog! What a fun and unique way to display medals! Not sure which I would choose….the believe one is nice, that was my motto (and still is) for my first half, I wore a bracelet that said that while I ran! Thanks for the offer!
I love the one that says "Always Earned Never Given"
I follow And Her Little Dog Too on Google Reader.

Oh how cool! My medals (and my husband's race medals) are all currently hanging off of one of our cake domes. We don't know what to do with them so I love this!
Is it lame that I'd just go for the cityscape one (with no words)? I'd be sharing it with the hubs.

Love your blog! It was one of the first I started following when I began to blog. I have never seen these before but I am so glad you posted about them- what an awesome gift for runners (and right in time for the holidays)! I'd love the plain city scape with the female runner.

I've officially become a follower now, like you on FB, and even posted your awesome blog and giveaway in my current status.

Have a great day!
So funny- I was going to buy a medal rack for my husband for Christmas and was going to google them today- how exciting, these look great!

I just found your blog but now plan to follow it. I found it looking for a display for my medals and for a xmas gift for my mom for hers.
I like the "Believe" one because completing a race all starts with you believing you can do, then the work begins.
I like the "triathlon figures" medal display. What a unique gift!
