Today’s Run:  9 x 400’s  (4.20 miles)

We have a collection of medals at our house.  A couple are from a Tae-Kwon-Do tournament and the rest are from races my husband and I have run.  For the most part, these have spent the past twenty years sitting in a box getting all tangled up with the ribbons fading.  We needed to do something about it, but aside from a shadow box or some other kind of frame, what to do?

About a week ago, I had this great idea!  We have a broken garden rake in the garage.  The rake itself is fine and the handle is fine, they just do not stay put together when you try to use them.  I decided that that meant it was broken.  So, I asked my husband if I could have the rake part and then he would have an extra handle for emergencies.  He decided that that would be okay.

Yesterday I cleaned the dirt off of the rake and nailed it to the wall.  Then on the prongs/teeth of the rake I hung the medals by their ribbons.  It looks pretty good!
