The tradition of awarding MEDALS to runners at the end of the marathon has a deep meaning behind it:

1. ** Achievement Recognition ** : Finishing a marathon is a huge personal achievement. For both professional and amateur athletes, being able to run the full 42.195km (or half distance or other distance) is a recognition of their endurance, perseverance and training results. The medal, as a reward in kind, is a direct affirmation of the effort and persistence of the participants.

2. ** Commemorative Value ** : Each medal carries the memory of a specific event, including the date and location of the competition. For many runners, collecting MEDALS from different events is a special hobby, and these MEDALS record every race they have participated in, becoming valuable personal collections.

3. ** Motivating effect ** : Winning MEDALS can greatly stimulate people's sense of accomplishment and pride, and encourage more people to participate in running. At the same time, for those who have participated in the competition many times, the new medal is also one of the motivation to continue to challenge themselves and pursue higher goals.

4. ** A sense of community ** : Participants often form a special bond through the long hours of training and preparation until the final completion of the race. Celebrating a victory with other competitors when receiving a medal helps to strengthen the bond between one another and feel part of something larger.

5. ** Promotion effect ** : The unique design and high-quality production of the MEDALS not only make the winners satisfied, but also become an effective tool for the promotion of the event. When people show their MEDALS, they are also advertising for the event, attracting more people to pay attention and participate in future events.

To sum up, awarding MEDALS is not only a recognition of the individual efforts of the participants, but also an important way to promote the spread of sportsmanship and strengthen community cohesion.
