Finisher Swag:

This year we our finisher shirts will be going back to our extremely soft tri-blend T's with a beautiful unique design and an absolutely MASSIVE race medals.  Over the years we’ve had  surfboard, flip flop, glass, lockets, artistic connecting medals, a pirate theme,  mosaic designs, and much more - we change it up each year to bring unique medals but this year might top them all. We hope you enjoy them!
