OK. I'm not judging. I'm not judging. Trying not to be judgmental here. BUT!!
I arrived at WDW marathon Sunday and departed this past Friday evening. Every day we saw tons of people wearing their medals. I understand rocking that bling all day race day. Maybe even all the way through Sunday if your race was earlier in the weekend. Maybe even the next day for Goofy/Dopey.
But wearing the medal for 5 days after the marathon? Isn't that what shirts, hats and jackets are for?
I understand that a marathon is a pretty big deal to most people and the longer distances even more of a big deal. So maybe to each their own. Maybe I am being judgmental even though I'm trying hard not to be.
Is this just a Disney thing or do you guys see this elsewhere. Maybe it's because I only have experience with single day events that I've never noticed this phenomenon?
thoughts?
