The ladder that keeps going past the marathon

21, 42, 100, 200. Most runners stop at the second number. The ones who do not tend to keep a decade of finishes from races nobody outside the sport has heard of, in places that took a day to reach.

This one is made only in the two wide sizes, because ultra runners do not have small collections. The 75 cm version holds up to 110 medals across three rails, and a second unit mounts flush when that fills.

Ultra medals are frequently oversized or unusual — wooden discs, cast plaques, things on rope rather than ribbon. The continuous rail takes them; a hook rack often will not.

This medal hanger is produced in the widths below. If you are buying it as a gift, size on the collection they already have rather than on what looks right on the wall.

Size & capacity

Not sure which size?

Only the wide sizes are made for this design, and that is deliberate. If 75 cm looks like too much, it is not. This design is produced from 60 cm upwards — the cut-out detail doesn't hold at smaller widths.

Made from one sheet, not assembled from parts

The medal holder is laser-cut from a single piece of AISI 304 stainless steel, 3 mm thick depending on the width. Nothing welded on, nothing to come loose.

Medals hang on a continuous rail rather than individual hooks, so you're limited by the width of the bar and nothing else.

Mounting

Everything is in the box: stainless standoffs, screws, wall plugs and a paper template. Mark through the template, drill, done — about ten minutes.

Running out of room

Buy a second and line it up directly beneath or beside this one — the proportions are designed so a pair looks intentional. The widest version holds up to 110 medals across three rails.

Getting it to you

This medal holder is made to order in the EU and on its way within 3–5 working days, with fourteen days to send it back if it isn't right.
