How do you display your medals?

I've made shadow boxes for my medals as well, themed for each type of race, ex: Disney Marathon Weekend Half Marathons, Country Music Half Marathons, Indiana Half Marathons, I just bought a new box for my 3 Princess Half Metals, and need to get something for the "random" Halves I've run. Of course my lonely Mickey Medal has his own box.
 
Made a nice wooden case myself. Glass cover and blue velvet lining. Wasn't that hard but if you don't have the tools or know how a local wood shop can always do one. It wasn't much money to do either . Don't know how you guys can run that many races! Not sure i could! My medals are a little different than yours, but though my idea might help. Mine are smaller though , good conduct, Purple Heart and bronze star. As well as a few others. I am starting to train to run at some point ! Wish me luck!!!
 

I use displays from Allied Medal Hangers also........ I like the customization options.

I have my medal & bib from the Florida 70.3 in a frame, but everything else is on the hanger....
 
Mine are all thrown in a drawer somewhere. I am not much into celebrating this sort of thing for more than a day or two after each event. But I do keep a spreadsheet and running journal with all of my races and times. It is my way of reminding myself that I am getting old. :lmao:

Oh. Well. You had to go and bring THAT up........................:scared1::scared1:
 
The wife and I hang our medals on the wall right by the front door, where we would usually lace up our shoes to hit the road for a jog. We also pass by this wall every morning on our way to the garage. It gives us motivation to keep training so we can add more =)
 
We have an Allied Medal display with a Disney theme as well, hung in our living room between two windows looking out to the front yeard. Nice little pick-me up to see them as we head out for our runs!

I lost the medals I had about 20 years ago in a fire - my daughter has several marathon and half medals and just started doing Triathlon (Olympic Length). She keeps hers in a drawer.
 
I just made myself a bib and medal display.. Just a wooden plaque painted and cup hooks screwed in (two for the bibs and then a row of 6 on the bottom for medals). I added metallic stickers that say "celebrate every mile"
