    I save bib numbers from memorable races. I have run many of the same races year after year. Each time the bib number means less and less.

    I keep my bibs because they don't take up lots of space-- they fold nicely into a box with letters and other special papers.

    I've donated medals to medals 4 mettle-- it's an organization that re-awards marathon, half-marathon, and triathlon medals from athletes to kids battling debilitating diseases.

    That is a great idea! I googled medals 4 mettle and there is a chapter in my city. I will look through my collection for medals to donate. Thanks.

    My friend made this and it turned out really cute and was super easy. They had everything at Michael's.

    I keep all of mine. They are covering my closet wall! It's a great reminder everyday of how much I've accomplished and how hard I've worked. Plus, they look cool. :wink:

    I keep all of mine, I usually go to Michael's and get a nice size frame and put the T-shirt that you usually get for running the race and then pin the bib to the front.

    Just did my 1st 5K two weeks ago...the bib is on the wall....something that I want to see to keep me motivated till I do my 2nd race. Can't wait.

    Congrats on your first race!

    I have kept all of my bibs in a photo album. I didn't put any race or time info on the back but after reading these posts I will!
