Finisher Jacket and Medal
« on: August 18, 2015, 08:13:28 AM »
Over the last several years there have been a lot of negative post-race comments about the finisher shirts.  I thought this years jacket was first class.  I will be wearing it a lot.  It is the first piece of clothing I have with thumb holes.  The medal is probably the best in my last 9 races.  Well done to the race organizers.

Love the Jacket!!  This was my first PPA, and my first official trail run, I could not be happier with my race day experience!

LOVE the finisher's jackets!!  Is it possible to keep doing these (versus the shirts)?  And the Doubler's Jackets, too?  PLEASE???
Huge hit!  I haven't heard one negative about them!

The jackets for both the Ascent and Marathon are amazing!  By far the nicest race swag I have ever received!  Not to be a complainer (ok, maybe I am!) but the doubler's sweatshirt leaves a lot to be desired.  The iron-on decal is nowhere near centered. Didn't the website say jacket?

I have really liked all 4 Ascent jackets I have received. 
How about jackets every 5 years instead of every 10 years?

Hello PPA chiefs-in-charge,

I agree the 2015 jackets were stylish and impressive to showcase the world-class ultimate marathon challenge. I would suggest awarding the same jackets and increase registration  fees by 20-30%.

Runners will register! Guaranteed.

Thank you,
Myrna
