Race Title: 2017 New Year
Distance: 31.1
Company: Yes.Fit
Charity: NA
What better way to kick off 2017 with my first race having a medal of 2017 New Years glasses? You can actually wear them too, although they are super heavy so I don’t really recommend it for more than long enough to snap a photo 😉
Race Title: Woodstock
Distance: 69.1
Company: Yes.Fit
Charity: NA
This is one of my favorite medals, it is kind of like a sun catcher. It took me from August to January to finish the 69.1 miles for this race and appropriately I finished this “Peace, Love, Music” race in the airport on my way to Back to the Island in Jamaica!
Race Title: Santa Burger

Race Title: That Damn Donna Reed
Distance: 7.3k
Company: Chilton Running Club
Charity: Days for Girls
From the makers of Hogwarts Running Club (and Whovian Running Club) comes Chilton Running Club! The Inaugural event for the Gilmore Girls running group was “That Damn Donna Reed” and the medal is Rory’s Lime Surprise from one of the episodes. I am looking forward to seeing what other episode related medals there are! And kind of hope the first year is all just food… it is the Gilmore Girls after all.
Race Title: A Christmas Story 5k
Distance: 5k
Company: A Christmas Story House
Charity: A Christmas Story House Neighborhood Restoration Project
Every Christmas Eve, I watch A Christmas Story at least once. I turn it on and watch from wherever it is in the marathon and then keep watching until I’ve looped through and seen it at least once. When I was looking for a Christmas-y race to enter, I knew that the 5k benefiting the Christmas Story House was the one for me – since I am also obsessed with actual locations of movie/tv show homes! I finished this one the day after Christmas – it’s a major award!
Race Title: Cupcake Run
Distance: 5k
Company: Virtual Runner UK
Charity: Alzheimer’s Society
After walking nearly a mile to find a cupcake vending machine, I decided that I needed to find myself a cupcake medal! There are several out there but I thought this one was the prettiest and would taste the best if it were an actual cupcake 🙂
Race Title: Kruger National Park Safari
Distance: 117mi
Company: Yes.Fit
Charity: NA
I started this race in June or July and finished it in December. It took quite some time and I was kind of bummed I didn’t see any animals on my safari as I went through the actual area on the Yes.Fit website. Ah well, someday I will get there for real and see animals 🙂
Race Title: Umbridge 13k (Or until it sinks in)
Distance: 13k
Company: Hogwarts Running Club
Charity: My Stuff Bags Foundation
When I first found HRC this event was either just closing or had just closed. I wasn’t entirely a fan of the medal so I skipped it. But when this and Molly were the only medals holding me back from being a Perfect Prefect as a first year, I decided I had to go for it.
