Who would like a physical graduation badge?

11 years ago•33 Replies

I have been in touch with the Admin team and have had the go ahead to produce a physical graduate badge.

Still sorting out website and the badge itself, but just checking this is something the group would be interested in. I am looking to get a quality enamelled badge made up with a soft epoxy resin coating. It will look something like the badge in the image attached with a back fastener again in image attached.

I am using a similar logo to the one on the tee shirts, but this will be in colour, yet again as per image attached.

Circular badge 25mm

My initial breakdown on costs is looking at these selling for £7.00, this would include VAT and postage...

Would anyone be interested?

Though I'm yet to graduate, I'll definitely buy a badge (and t-shirt, come to that!) when graduation time comes; what a splendid idea!

I like the idea, I got so disappointed when I realised my badge was only virtual will they come in a choice of colours like the tshirts? (Wore mine with pride today on my run)

spoonierunningGraduate11 years ago

I posted last week wishing someone would produce something like this, glad there is someone like you with a bit of initiative to get ball rolling (unlike me who just bemoans the fact there is not one!). I cannot see the picture for some reason but if I was being honest I would prefer a medal instea off, or as an alternative to the badge as I believe many people on here may neve want to run in an organised race where a medal is awarded , but completing the challenge of couch to 5k is at least as worthy of recognition as someone turning up at one having done no training and walking half the race but still receiving a medal.

Yes, a badge is a great idea and I'd buy one - preferably not more than £7 though as I'm an OAP on a very tight budget.

I'd suggest making the "Couch to 5k" text more prominent, but yes, I think it's a good idea, and if be interested.

Hi Jacobite

Took onboard your suggestion and made changes, and renewed the image in the top of the post. Also now showing in the correct shades of green.

I'd be interested if it wasn't too expensive (in same boat as so many people these days). The badge would be a way of letting other people know about C25K and allow other C25K graduates in the same area to recognise a like minded fellow runner. Cheers.
