Goody Bags

Following this years Bristol Half Marathon, I was presented with a goody bag that through the sheer weight of it proved to be a bigger challenge to carry it back to the car thabn running the thirteen miles to "earn it".
On returning home and investigating it's contents, I found a half kilo of sugar and one litre of iced tea amongst several over trial sie products.
In the past I have also received athletes foot treatment, deep heat spray, shampoo & conditioner.
I was wondering what the most unusual item received in a goody bag might be?

Still it was better than what we got at the end of the marathon, a bottle of water, a tshirt and a power bar.

Bag after the race was cr@p too, I'm just glad I'd bought some food with me as I needed more than one energy bar after the finish!
Did I lose the power of sight at Dublin or was there a problem with the mile markers? Didn't see that many...
Back to thread: Truro Half always gives out big bottle of beer, quite a good long sleeve t-shirt, chocs, energy drink and bananananas a plenty.
what colour?
Know what you mean about the mile markers, you just couldn't rely upon seeing one.
If I hadn't got a PB and had such a good weekend away with the family I'd be feeling pretty ripped off, as it wasn't a cheep one to enter.

Glad to read I wasn't the only one who didn't see the mile markers -- After about mile 12 I saw none until about mile 21.

All "fair trade".
Hope other races take note!

Sports Relief mile a couple of years ago: included a bright red scrunchy thing, bottled London tapwater (enviromentally freindly...) and a single sock. You got the other sock before the run.
Going slightly off topic: I've been known to volunteer as a steward at SF conventions. One organiser at their first convention gave all the stewards the perk of having their photo taken with the (celebrity) guests. At their next convention they'd obviously realised how much time/money that cost, so instead they gave us all a picture of the organisers with the guests. Everyone was very polite but not impressed! It would have been OK if they'd just given us all an exclusive picture of the guests... LOL
A single sock?
BWAH HA HA HA HA HA HA
