First-Monday-of-the-year orders set the tone for spring. Three shifts in race-director briefs landing this week will define what runners post about in 2019.
First-Monday-of-the-year orders set the tone for spring. Three shifts in race-director briefs landing this week will define what runners post about in 2019.
Medals with a free-spinning enameled center disc started appearing in late 2018 and are now landing in roughly half of all 2019 race briefs we receive. The motion is irresistible on Instagram, and production cost adds only ~฿15/medal. Specify a brass bushing (not plastic) so the spin still feels smooth in year three.
More race directors are etching a small QR code on the medal back, linking to the runner's official finish time and certificate. Laser-engraved at the factory at no extra cost. Runners scan months later to relive the moment — and the race brand gets ongoing visibility well past finish day.
