My medals are sacred to me. That may sound silly - they're just cheap ribbons and chains and pieces of aluminum. They probably cost all of 90 cents to make and are valued at virtually nothing, but they mean far more to me than that. They symbolize sacrifice and discipline and pain and triumph. They are part of what makes me different and reminders of things I've seen and times in my life. I have a medal holder in my pain cave and it's a nice to look at when I'm pushing through a terrible bike interval workout at 5 a.m. in my basement doubting my life choices.That's why I love my Allied Medal Hanger, which reads: Always Earned, Never Given. It's a powerful message about the lives we build and the choices we make. Because in the end, everything around us is the life we earned.
Allied recently redid its website and it's something to behold. In addition to an interactive design that gives you a better idea of how many medals each will hold and what it looks like, the custom design feature is awesome. You can pick your phrase and fonts, along with design elements like sport-specific logos or silhouettes, as well as how many bars to add.
Get started on your own custom hanger, or pick from the site's array of pre-made products with a $75 account credit. Enter below via RaffleCopter, and it will select a winner on Aug. 20. Good luck, athletes!

I would have a custom display made that says "For the Love of Running"
I love the simple "Runner" medal holder design.
I'd probably write a motivational saying like, "Like A Boss" or "Do Big Things" and of course have a runner girl on there! Awesome giveaway :)
My medals are sacred to me as well. I made my medal hangar, but didn't have enough foresight and it's full! I'd love to win this :)
I'd probably get the generic "She believed she could, so she did" or I'd customize it with my name.
My boyfriend just recently started running and we've done a few races together. I would love to get a medal holder that said something cute, like "His & Hers" or "We Run This Town".
I like the one displayed "Always earned never given" but it would be a hard choice!
I would get one that says Tiny Terror because that's my nickname.
Miles of Magic!
I don't have a personal mantra when running but I do love their "Every Mile is Magic" because I wouldn't be running if I didn't agree!
I would love a custom display that says "Though she be but little, she is fierce"
There are so many that I love, but I would probably select the Half Fanatics one with the Vulture and add my HF number
I'd challenge my son to use it
Be Strong, Think Strong, Finish Strong
My husband needs the Be Strong, thing Strong, Finish Strong
My husband needs the Be Strong, thing Strong, Finish Strong

I was just thinking of getting one for my office wall. The 50 states 50 half marathons in my favorite
I would love it to says 'always Earned, Never Given'
I would choose the "cityscape" hanger -- it is so cool.
I love the "It's Kind of Fun to Do the Impossible!" medal hanger! Disney is one of my big motivations for running (going down for the 10K in february!) and it really helps me honor two things I love (Disney & Running!)!
I'd do something the whole family would use..."WE ARE A RUNNING FAMILY". It would be nice to display everyone's accomplishments in a place we see everyday. This could also encourage us to continue efforts to better ourselves.
This would look great in my office!
I love the "cityscapes" hanger!
I really like the "Always Earned, Never Given" one! Or the Boston cityscapes one :)

I would want "Just Keep Running!"
I would customize "Never Stop Persevering" :)
I like the "She Believed She Could, So She Did".
