I overheard an interesting conversation whilst walking the dogs the other day that got me thinking.
Three joggers were puffing their way along the road, and moaning that an event was offering wooden medals…
Personally, I thought the idea of a wooden medal was quite different and I would be quite intrigued by it. It also made me wonder, what is the motivation for entering the event in the first place? Is it just in pursuit of medals – these were hardly elite runners. Or should you be entering for the experience, the chance to see if you have improved your time, that you have bettered your self?
