runDisney and the Disney Parks Blog have just released images of the long awaited Star Wars Half marathon medals. As usual each race over the weekend has a different finishers medal. The medals seem to encompass the original Star Wars movies very well and will definitely be a huge part of why next years Star Wars Half marathon will sell out.
- 5k finishers will receive a C3P0 medal, and kids race finishers will receive an R2-D2 medal.
- 10k- pentagon shaped Stormtooper medal
- The Half Marathon medal seems to be one that will make SW fans think, so much so the Parks Blog felt the need to explain it in depth. “Those familiar with Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope will recognize that the medal is influenced by the Medal of Bravery presented to Battle of Yavin heroes Luke Skywalker and Han Solo.”
- Finishers of the Rebel Challenge will receive a third medal with a spinner medallion. One side has Yoda and the light side of the Force, the other has the dark side represented by Darth Vader.
