so this one got me thinking, WTH Bring them in. Enough people here already know about my skate racing and even ask, SOOOOO.
i have three races that meant a lot to me this year. Disney, the US 10K Classic and of course Athens to Atlanta ( A2A,also meaning the most)The US10k gives a desk clock as an award for age placements. so i put the Disney and A2A medals on the clock which now sets proudly and prominently on my desk

all at home.
Numbers in a file folder
medals hanging in the basement
1st marathon shoes are hanging on the wall, with finish line dirt and grass still on them. I took them off as soon as I finished.

Very cool, Joe. Should have done that with mine. But I still do have them, so maybe in the not-too-distant....

bibs at work...found it is a good conversation piece for people who happen by my office...it's also a good way to meet other runners at work...
finisher's medals from my marathon are at home in my bedroom...
looks like i'm the lone ranger on this one.

I saved the running shoes from momentous races from my career (much to the dismay of the lovely bride) My PR at the Broad Street, My Marathon, My first and only ½ marathon, my first and only age group win. They are hanging in the basement

Mine are kind of strewn about the house and garage. Medals and trophies here and there. I've got a few bibs lying around also including one on the floor of my truck.  I suppose if I ever taken an AG award in a big race with some high profile runners I'd put some value on that and put it on display.

Cool idea. I still wear my first marathon shoes and about. I took pictures of all my shoes for my scrapbook that someday will get made. The pair I just retired is the worst looking of the bunch. Makes me  .
