We’re honored to, once again, be the Finisher Medals suppliers of 23rd Annual Philadelphia Marathon. This is our 10th year supplying the medals for this event and and our first year also providing the finisher apparel. Located 45 minutes south of our office in Bucks County PA, the Philadelphia Marathon was one of our first clients and each year we look forward to working closely with their team to listen to their visions and goals for the new year.
For this year’s event Philadelphia wanted to keep the celebration going and not just be seen but heard throughout the city by featuring a, free standing, working Liberty Bell. In today’s virtual world of “Likes, Pins and HashTags” these simple bells could be heard everywhere the runners went long into the night making new real life connections and allowing everyone share their stories in person rather than just on a tiny screen.
For every event Always Advancing works with, it’s important for us to put in the time to learn about what makes your city and event unique. That’s what really takes a Finisher Medal from being just a nice award to a cherished keepsake that reminds them why they can’t wait to come back next year and do it again.
Thanks to the great team at Always Advancing for the awesome 2017 AACR Philadelphia shirts and medals. They were definitely a hit with all of our participants
