Kentucky Derby Festival reveals rose-themed medals for 2024 marathon races
The Kentucky Derby Festival has unveiled the medal design for a very special edition of the Derby Marathon and miniMarathon.
The races precede the 150th Run for the Roses, and therefore, the medal design itself will be a rose.
Runners will be racing for roses themselves on April 27 with a red rose set against a black background complemented by gold accents.
You can see the medal for the marathon above and and the medals for the mini and the relay below.
