Over the past few years, I've come to love running, and because of it, I've completed 40 runDisney races. That's 40 finisher's medals that I'm very proud of, but when they started stacking up around my house and on my desk, I knew something needed to change. That's when a family member gave me a medal hanger to display my medals, and it instantly became one of my favorite gifts I've ever received. In fact, I love it even more than more practical gifts like a running belt, because it keeps my desk clutter-free and has given me a chance to bask in my accomplishments (and occasionally, even brag on myself a little).

If you have a loved one who's an avid runner, you might want to think about purchasing one yourself. Keep reading for a few of my favorites.
