It didn’t fit anymore! I made a medal rack less than a year ago, but it is full now. I suppose things started accelerating when I joined the running club. That makes you eligible for NWRAC medals. And I have been doing well since having started both hill and track training. So then you often get multiple medals in one race.
When I came home from the Snowdonia Half Marathon with four medals (finisher, non-stop runner up Forest Hill, category win, silver medal) I knew they wouldn’t fit. I needed to act! And I put a smaller bamboo stick up in the storage room. I put all my pre-covid medals on it. That made good space on the bigger rack.

When I had sorted that it struck me there were so many medals there that weren’t finishing medals. I did a quick count; I have 36 medals there, and only 20 are finisher medals. So almost half are things like category wins and bronzes and silvers. Pretty cool!

The time will come when it will be full again. But I have bought myself a bit of time now. I can ponder where the next rack will go!
