Yesterday after work I hit up Happy Hour with the SoCal runner girls.
It was fun except Once Upon a Lime accidently chugged someone else’s beer. And by ‘accidently’ I mean pre-meditated.
I got a hamburger salad because I already have enough buns. Get it? And because we got sweet potato fries and fried pickles. It’s a tiny bit of balance, right?
Marathon Medals Display Hanger
Okay, you may have heard I like to Run and Eat. I even made a little website about it. Obsessive much?
Anyway, at this point Run Eat Repeat is my only hobby, friend and love.
So, when the owner of Sport Hooks offered to make me a personalized RER race medal hanger I got super excited!
This is like Christmas morning the year you got a doll with red hair for once!!! <- wait, was that just me?
I was way overdue for a new race medal hanger too! My old one is about to fall off the wall. Seriously.
You can get a Run Eat Repeat SportHook for $63.95 here
Or pick up another less, RERtastic version at their SportHooks shop. They have so many designs!
I know I have some RunDisney lovers out there too.
SportHooks will have a booth at the RnR San Francisco expo this weekend – so stop by and tell her you read some weird blog called Run Eat Repeat and get free shipping on RER hangers and no tax if you buy it in person!
Question: Have you ever been to San Francisco?
Are you going this weekend??
I’ll be at RnR SF this weekend, hitting up the expo Sat. Follow RER on twitter so you can know exactly where I am at any given moment even though that’s probably wildly dangerous and irresponsible.
Erick Gonzales says
Wow, how long does it take to acquire so many medals? And how many more to you plan on getting? You may need yet another hanger. This new one is very cool, what an awesome gift. Congrats and good luck on filling up that new one!!

Mmmm fried pickles. I just went to Texas for the first time (to run RnR Dallas) and discovered fried pickles. We ate them nearly everyday of the trip.
I went to San Fran for Nike Women’s in 2011 and I absolutely loved the city. I’d been a couple times in high school but that was my first time flying there and navigating on my own. (Which was so much easier than say Downtown LA.)
Jen says
My daddy made me a medal hanger for Christmas last year (he’s a super handy man) but somehow my hubby’s medals are making their way on there too – I know what I’ll get the hubby for Christmas this year!
And omg I am so with you on getting excited about getting a doll with red hair for once! As a fellow ginger, I LOVED my red haired cabbage patch kid!!
Becky- www.thedirtroadrunner.blogspot.com says
So what are you doing with the OLD medal holder? You could pass that bad boy over to me 🙂 I kid. I kid. Sort of. 🙂 So I only have 3 medals but am getting 2 more this month so I could use it for sure!!
Kelly@ShapeDaily says
Thats really cool!Love the look of all of those race hangers (if I ran enough races to win that many medals) I am dying to come to California. I’ve never been and there are so many places I want to visit including San Fran which I’ve heard is beautiful and really cool. Jealous.
Sonia the Mexigarian says
I’m going to be running RnRSF too! Though I’ll be at the Expo tomorrow afternoon sometime. Driving up from San Jose tomorrow and sunday morning. Traffic is going to suuuuuuuck.
I’ve been wanting to get a medal display. . .
benjamin says
SF looks amazing for running! I have only recently started running in Vancouver but would love to explore other cities. I don’t think i’m ready for a marathon yet but i’m working towards it 🙂
kendra @ kennygump says
i LOVE that hanger. “i run this town” is my fav!
Ja @Ja on the RUN says
That’s a sweet medal hanger!
I’m booked for san francisco in May to meet with family. I hope there’s a race coming up in May over there.
Have fun at the RnR 🙂
Losing Lindy says
That is a super cool medal hanger!
Kimberly says
Awesome sport hook! I met you and the LA marathon, and I’m glad to see that you are running in my hood this time 🙂 I’ll be out there on Sunday as well! Hopefully the rain holds out.
Anna {Herbivore Triathlete} says
That is a really cool medal display hanger!
Lindsey @ Run Freckles Run says
I love the hangers! I need to get one myself. I only have one medal, but a lot of the races I’m participating in this year have them for all the runners. Not just top finishers. I’ll need one! Thanks for posting the link!
I will def be working out this weekend! I do my long runs on Saturdays and Sundays since I can’t devote that time during the week. Wish I didn’t have to keep my day job.
Stephanie says
Super cute medal hanger!
Thetinyrunner says
I love your new medal hanger! I need to get one! I went to San Francisco about two years ago. it was SO much fun!
Beth @ Miles and Trials says
I love that Sports Hook. I definitely need to get one, my husband is sick of my medals hanging from his baseball cap rack!
Colleen says
Awesome medal hanger! That absolutely puts mine to shame. I have been to San Fran and most of SoCal on a vacay a few summers ago. Loved! I am a Southern gal at heart, though!
Fizz @fizzsbizz says
I’ll be there!
It’s my first half so I’m super excited/nervous and hoping the rain holds off.
I’ll be chasing down a sweet beer and salt like its nobody’s business at approximately 9:30am.
Sonia the Mexigarian says
I’ll be right with you on that beer. 🙂 Running RnRSF as well. I’ll be in purple bunny ears.
Debbie @ Deb Runs... says
That’s a great medal hanger… Some people are so clever and talented! Good luck at RNR SF! Enjoy!
Lora @ Crazy Running Girl says
I really need to get a hanger… I just have my medals stacked on nails right now! These are awesome!
Angela says
When I saw that first pic on Instagram I thought it looked like you cut your hair! Must just be the picture. 🙂
Ashley @ Eat Run Live Happy says
I’m running the St.Louis GO half this weekend! I’m so excited!
runeatrepeat says
Good luck!
Chelsea says
Those medal racks are adorable – I’d love to one day have enough runDisney medals to actually, you know, need a rack to display them on! Also, giggling at the word rack every time = I’m five years old 🙂
RunLikeAclydesdale says
Nice Rack!! 🙂
I want one.
runeatrepeat says
Ha! You win the award for my favorite comment of the day 🙂
There’s no actual prize, but it’s the thought that counts…
Ashley says
Those are so cute! Once Ive done enough races that displaying my medals on a cool hook looks awesome not dreary and lonely I’ll totally get one
michelle kim says
Cool! I attend San Francisco State, and live in SF on the weekdays. Hope you have a great time at the RnR SF race!
Mary says
Loving the medal display! 🙂
Heather @ Run Eat Play says
Love the medal hanger! Have fun in SF this weekend! I’ve been once on a family vacation!
Harper says
Lived there for a little while. Go eat at HRD coffee shop for me.
Sarah OUaL says
Can’t take that oual anywhere…
runeatrepeat says
By the way, I love your kiddos 🙂
Jojo says
That’s so awesome 😀 I only have one medal under my belt, so it be really lonely on a hanger. I’m gonna get another one this weekend, though! So excited!
momtaxijulie says
I was going to do that one but it sold out before I got signed up. Darn I could have met you!! 😉
Kim says
Very cool medal hanger!
I love San Francisco – it has been awhile since I’ve been, though!
Have fun at the expo and race!!
Stephanie says
I love the medal hanger, I’ve been needing to get one. I’m running RNR SF on Sunday too! Can’t wait! Might have to go to the expo Saturday if you’ll be there – I’m a huge fan!
Liz s says
Burger salad!!! OMG that is heavenly. I would totally skip the buns and get sweet potato fries instead. YUM!
runeatrepeat says
And the sweet potato fries came with pumpkin dipping sauce. I die.
Megan says
I’m SO JEALOUS of your personalized hanger. Mine is so full and the spots for the screws / nails is placed in the dumbest spot so I can’t actually hang it. What the french right? So I have it strategically placed on a tall lamp with shelves and it hangs out there. I have been in the market for a new one!
runeatrepeat says
I need to start saying what the french over what I currently say…
Elizabeth @ livingrunningcooking.com says
Your medal hanger is adorable. Maybe one day I will have enough medals for a hanger!! Mine would be pretty sad right now. I LOVE San Fran. Never run there… I would need some serious training for all those hills.
Susan says
The hubs and I were in San Fran in 2010. It was our front-end and back-end stop during our trip to Yosemite. I liked what we saw did there.
I LOVE MEDALS! I don’t have a fancy schmancy medal holder.
I have a half marathon on Saturday here in Indiana. Good luck to all who are racing this weekend.
Amy says
Love the medal hanger!!! I wish I could go to RNR San Fran. I love the RNR races…I REALLY want to do the one in Ireland!
runeatrepeat says
Me too!!! I want to do that one so bad…
Nicole says
The medal hangers are great. If I could find a house to buy, I would hang one up.

Jessica @ From the Kitchen to the Road says
I really want a medal hanger! I won a winter running contest this year where the prize was supposed to be a medal hanger. The person making them must have forgotten or something because I never heard about the prize again. I guess I’ll have to buy one.
Kobe Chester says
Oh I understand completely about the “how do you want your burger cooked?” question. That how I know Im in the right place. I love those kind of burgers. Just sayin.
Thanks
KC
nerri @ lapetiterunner says
I LOVE that race medal hanger! Almost as much as I love fried pickles 😉
Abby @ Change of Pace says
Cute hanger- that’s a nice size!
Are you racing this weekend? I love SF and would love to run one of their major races one year!
runeatrepeat says
Yes! The RnR Half 🙂 You?
Kate says
I LOVE SF! But I won’t be there this weekend 🙁
Amy @ Writing While Running says
Fried pickles are fantastic. *Love* them!
I love San francisco! Unfortunately my trip next week to the West Coast is to LA, not SF, for a conference. I wish I were going to SF, but I really can’t complain about getting to be in warmth and sunshine!
Candy @ Candypolooza says
Love it!!
Krissy @ Shiawase Life says
I have never been to SF…SOOOOOO looking forward to the San Francisco Marathon in June <3
Alissa says
This is just what I have been looking for! I love the Disney ones! A group of us are planning to do the Disney Coast to Coast next year & this would be the perfect gift for them!
runeatrepeat says
Right?! I think the Disney hangers are perfect for people doing Coast to Coast. Super cute 🙂
Taylor @ LiftingRevolution says
That is so cute! I have nothing right now, my medals and such are just randomly hiding in drawers around my house. Slacker I know!
Sue says
Same here. Am totally envious of those of you who take the time to put it up, decorate the wall around the hanger etc. I’m just not that creative! Oh, and I procrasinate…a lot!
Tia says
I dunno how people eat hamburgers like that! The first time I was in Vegas I went to BLT burger at the Mirage and they asked me how I wanted my burger cooked, I was like huh? I want it COOKED! Haha it was so funny. I had never been asked that before (being from Canada) I thought it was the stangest thing.
So jealous of all your medals, that’s amazing!
