medals
If you would like a high-quality finisher’s medal then please book when entering the event.
Your medal will be issued to you just after the finish line.
Votwo is aware that some people want medals and some people don't. We do not want to needlessly produce items that go to waste, hence we have devised this order form. In previous years we have issued free medals to all finishers but the world is changing and we are trying to minimise our environmental impact.
We will have limited spare medals on the day if wish to purchase at the event.
