11K Finisher's Medal

We believe in providing quality medals for our events and this year will be no different! Below is an artist's sketch of the 2012 National Veterans Day Run 11K Finisher's Medal. The medal depicts US Marines raising the flag over Mount Suribachi after the Battle of Iwo Jima. All 11K finisher's will receive the medal - even those participating in our virtual run. In addition the medal will be attached to a patriotic 7/8" red-white-and-blue ribbon.
