Belt Buckles

Postby Double Bellybuster » Thu Jan 12, 2012 9:39 pm

Are there any races in Ontario that give them out? I am aware only of Dirty Girls.

thanks!

Yep, Sulphur and Haliburton give you one if you finish the 100 miler, and DG gives out one in the 24hr if you run 120km.

I think the Calgary Marathon gives out belt buckles instead of medals, but not sure.

Beast of Burden near Buffalo, NY was giving out belt buckles in the 24hr and of course in the 100.

Are you tempted by the mighty buckle?

I was challengd by a member of my household to go earn a belt buckle. Why couldn't I have been challenged to go eat a quadruple scoop ice cream cone instead?

I luv my one and only belt buckle from the 2008 Calgary Marathon ... and, where it almost every day to work ... wish that more races would provide functional medals ... San Francisco Marathon Finisher's Medal also doubles as a cup mat ... :P

I'm thinking of giving out a belt buckle at Creemore, if you finish the 50K and eat a quadruple scoop ice cream cone as you cross over the finish line...

I think you also get a buckle at calgary 70.3... perhaps somebody else in your household could get one too.
