The golden ribbon with the distance printed from 1km to 42.195km, medal showing Phidippides running with a shield. With a shield?
On Friday, I received this commemorative medal via mail. In celebration of the 2,500th anniversary of the legend of marathon. I had thought of going to Greece, Athens to run a marathon, a long trip there will include a few days of sight-seeing, a trip there was estimated to cost more than S$5,000.
This year 2010 will be a significant year to run a marathon no matter where we are. A celebration of the spirit of Phidippides.
A little booket with 8 pages on the history of marathon. Medal on a display stand. Actual color of the medal.
