Coast to Coast medals have been shared!View attachment 818711ety

Also it might help that I’ve got at least 6 of the old ones. And while I wouldn’t have minded a return to the old style it’s nice to be earning a new medal.

That is understandable... if I had a bunch of the old ones I would want some variety too.

Yeah like to be clear I liked the old medal design. I would have been fine getting it back again. But I don’t mind the new design.

And who knows maybe if enough people express a dislike they’ll go back to a design closer to the original in 25

I guess I’m in the minority in liking them. The first one reminds me almost of a liscense plate for some reason. Though I wish they had said which medal was going to what challenge

I also like them! I'm not doing C2C so no medal for me but I'm excited to see people wearing them in the park.

I like them… I have to confess that I was expecting something more meaningful in the design (regardless of materials)…

 

[fatmanatee]

Definitely not what I was expecting, particularly given the fact that they emphasized that they’d have TWO medals. Thought the first might tie to D100. They could have just given the first one to everyone?

Yeah I definitely expected more differences between them since they emphasized that the track one would be special and only available in 2024. I was kind of liking them until someone said they felt like they were "giving truck stop magnet" and now I can't unsee that. Curious which one is which. I kind of like the round one better.

I think the round one is MW/DL and the rectangle is DL/whatever because (if I’m not mistaken) the round has Cinderella Castle on the left and Sleeping Beauty Castle on the right, and the rectangle is the other way around.

This makes sense, until you said this I was like “so why exactly are we doing two medals here?”

Was WAY off in my thinking, I thought they’d do something similar to the old CTC medals, with the first “special” one having extra pop (as i mentioned before, 100th theming).

I'm underwhelmed. After they got the medal designs pretty much right for all the races this year for me, I guess my expectations were too high especially when compared to the iconic 2017 10th Anniversary Coast to Coast with both castles and the Partners statue.

I think the round one is MW/DL and the rectangle is DL/whatever because (if I’m not mistaken) the round has Cinderella Castle on the left and Sleeping Beauty Castle on the right, and the rectangle is the other way around.

I think the opposite. The rectangular one has the outlines of both California and Florida on it along with both Walt Disney World and Disneyland on it. To my way of thinking that makes more sense for the one week Coast to Coast track. Plus they showed the rectangular one first and it's the first one available.

At least I hope so. I do like both states on the rectangular one and the name of both resorts.

The C2C medal looks like they forgot about it until there was like 2 days to go before the engraver needed the designs.

Then it was like finishing a 5 page paper in high school on the night before it's due.

Well, one of us is definitely right

 

[nekonekoneko]

The little castles look like mini -spinners.

Or they'll surprise everyone after the Instagram comment section and come up with something else.

 

[Popo]

I have two thoughts about the C2C medals. It could it be the medals are resort specific. The first will be given at WDW, the second at DLR. Or, it could be associated with the Track 1/Track 2 system for earning the medal.

 

[luv2cheer92]

I don't mind the C2C medals. They aren't my favorite ever, but I don't hate them. Just happy to be able to earn one of them (whichever it is lol) this year!

That is exactly how I feel - yes, I'd prefer one of the classic ones but I'm happy with these. Hoping the rectangular one is the one for the MW/ DLH track. I've been wanting to do C2C for so long that I'm just happy to finally be able to do it!
