2-months salary is the socially acceptable "minimum" to spend on a 'rock'.

Home & Work.
Bib numbers are on a giant ring, clipped via magnet on my fridge.
My one single race trophy is on the mantle above my work desk along with all my bobbleheads.

Trophies:there's a few boxes in the supply room in my basement with old ones. Recent ones...in a drawer somewhere. Most recent marathon ones get the spot on the mantel
medals: award-type, don't know....I know my hubby has them somewhere. Finisher medals for Marathon and half for both me and hubs are on a clothes hanger in my closet
bib numbers....I find them everywhere, car, laundry room lots of times.
Posters from marathons are in my workout room.
Shirts.....I have two boxes, I have laundry basket in my bedroom right now as I'm in the process of having a quilt made....so I'm picking shirts. I also have a dresser full in spare room.
clippings/articles/results: in the closet in the computer room

There's no way in HECK that I'd ever drop that kind of money on a diamond.
They can have my 2 months salary when they pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

When we moved 2 years ago, Pebbs had about 5 large moving boxes full of trophies, plaques and medals. She threw away about 3 boxes of trophies and reboxed the ones she felt were achievements (1st places and big races).
A few months ago while I was finishing our exercise room, I built a trophy case and placed them in there. The case is too full and I am going to build another for the kiddos stuff.

My medals (framed) and trophies and plaques and pictures from HS & College Track but they are at my parents house still.
My bibs from running are stacked on my desk at home with my finsh time and the date written on them.
The one trophy and one medal I have from running are on top of my desk.

She does have a good deal of hardware. I took a piece of fiber board and covered it with material and hung it on the wall in her room as a temporary place for her plaques and medals......someday I will get around to the case.

Mostly at home. I had the bib from my 50K up at work but I think I brought it home. I have plans to put that in frame with the article that I wrote, the 2 pictures I have and the article about the race but I just haven't gotten to that.

I think you definitely should. I used to go to a shoe store and liked to read the articles on the owners wife. Whenever I'd see her she had three little ones hanging from her, it was interesting to see a person in a different light. She was a very good biker, IronWoman. As an owner, you can make a nice connection with customers

I agree, that would be a good PR message
