Best 10k medals
Hi fellow runners, I am after finding out if any of you have done 10k's and got some great medals for them. I competed in the Longleat 10k on Sunday and got a fantastic medal which takes my total medals up to 8 now. So far I've competed in: Victory 5 BUPA London 10,000 Ryde 10 Lymington 10k Sport Relief 6 Brighton Half Marathon Royal Marine Comando Challenge Longleat 10k I've also done the Nike Human Race but we didn't get a medal for that one. I am going to enter the Marwell 10k in May, anyone done that before?

Longleat is by far the best 10km medal I've received, I love it!
Threads already been done before Sam
Dorney Dash usually do a good medal
I've just entered regents park 10k and sadly no medal on offer, just a memento - any idea what it is? Might have to do a Blue Peter version!
Sorry for guys reading this but the She Runs Windsor 10k by the Rock n Roll series medal was awesome! Not sure they are doing it this year though.
I've seen the Lincoln 10k medal and looks great - would travel up there (150 miles) just for that! Only problem it always clashes with the spring marathons I have signed up too.
+1 for Longleat... I've done it a couple of times... The medal has been different on each occasion but they were both great... If I had any kind to technical ability I'd post some photos of them.
The nicest 10k medal I've had was for the Totnes 10k in Devon. Otherwise the ones for the Dorney Dash and the Yateley 10k series are pretty decent and you can collect 3 of the Yateley ones. This year they had a bottle opener in them.
Apart from medal, Flamingoland 10k a good run, would reccomend it, through the zoo/park, worth doing, between Scarborough and York. Never knew about it until read a local paper article about late entry appeal, I had operation the following week and knew would be out of action so thought why not have a go before being laid up. Turned out to be one of the best run routes I've done, great fun.
Paul started organising and running this every year in 2013 I think he now does it to raise money for the brain injury charity he set up. He was hit on Easter Sunday in 2012 and got a brain injury and went through hell recovering. He turned to fitness to help him through and started this 10k run every year on Easter Sunday so it isn’t a bad day for him. This year will be the first time I’ve ran it or at least tried to and how ever I do it will be through Paul encouraging me and giving me personal training. So will be a big day for probably both of us.
