A couple weeks ago, I ran the Running of the Elk Thrive 5K. In my post about the race, I mentioned that there was some confusion as to whether or not I finished third or fourth in my age division (Men's 35-39). Well, everything has been sorted out, and it was determined that I finished third. The top three finishers in each age group got a finisher medal, and so I went to pick my up from The Running Zone in Elk Grove.

I was quite thrilled to earn my first award medal. The medal itself is pretty neat: it's made of wood and the elk image is quite nice. I think if you looked at just the front of the medal, you would think it was a half marathon finisher medal rather than an award medal.
To further celebrate my accomplishment, I've updated my running badge to indicate I was an award winner:
