Disney's Wine & Dine Half Marathon Medals have been unveiled!

With just over two months to go before the big race, Disney has released what the medals will look like for this year's Wine & Dine Half Marathon and Relay. After seeing last year's medal, it appears that one of the differences is the color. The 2010 inaugural medal was silver and this year's medal appears to be gold in the picture. Disney also indicated that the lanyard will be different from last year's maroon (or red wine) colored one. If the picture is showing the new lanyard, the it is probably supposed to either be gold to match the new medal color of white wine colored to go along with the theme. I can't wait to have that medal around my neck after I cross the finish line. Between this year's and last year's colors, I look much better wearing silver but there is just something about the thought of having a gold medal around my neck. It just makes you feel like a winner and in my opinion anyone who trains and runs a half marathon (or any other long distance) is a winner. Most people don't have the desire to start training for an event like this let alone actually participate in it. If you are among the few people that start training and participate in teh event, then you are a winner and you deserve a medal like this to commemorate this milestone in your life. I am completely excited about earning this medal!
