The SRRC is also supporting the Medals4Mettle organization.

Medals4Mettle is a non-profit organization founded in 2005. It facilitates the gifting of marathon, half marathon, and triathlon finishers’ medals from runners to children and adults dealing with chronic or debilitating illnesses and have demonstrated similar mettle, or courage in bravely facing these challenges. You can help by donating your finisher’s medal. Then our nationwide network of physicians and volunteers will award these medals (with a Medals4Mettle ribbon attached) to those who might not be able to run a race, but are in a race of their own to continue to live their life. Monetary donations to help defray the cost of ribbon production are also welcome. For more info or volunteer opportunities visit http://www.medals4mettle.org/.

Medals can be dropped of at the Springfield Running Center and Melanie would be happy to collect any medals at the social for an additional entry into a drawing.

The first recipient from the M4M Central Illinois Chapter will receive their medal on August 24th at St. John’s Childrens Hosptal!
