Crossing the finish line of an Ironman is the culmination of months of training, sacrifice, and self-transcendence. The medal placed around your neck at the finish is more than just an object—it’s the concrete symbol of an achievement few people accomplish.
Yet, a few weeks after the race, this medal often ends up in a drawer. Along with the bib, photos, and memories that accumulate over the years. Here's how to give them the place they deserve.

Why display your Ironman medals?
A triathlete who consistently competes in long-distance races quickly accumulates a significant collection: Ironman, 70.3, marathons, trails. Each medal represents a different story—difficult weather, overcoming a tough patch at km 30 of a marathon, a sleepless night before the start.
Displaying them means:
- Daily reminding yourself why you train
- Transforming a living space into a source of motivation
- Sharing your passion with those around you
- Valuing years of visible effort

Option 1: The wooden triathlon medal hanger
The cleanest and most decorative solution. A handcrafted solid wood medal hanger allows you to display your entire collection in an organized way. The Finisher Wall by FinisherDisplay is specifically designed for triathletes: medals, bibs, and an integrated natural slate board to note your times or next goals.
Two formats available depending on the size of your collection:
- Finisher Wall: up to 30 medals
- Finisher Wall XL: up to 60 medals
Made in France, from solid wood and natural slate, available in three finishes: raw wood, waxed wood, or Shou Sugi Ban burnt wood.

Option 2: A wall dedicated to achievements
Some triathletes go further and create an entire space dedicated to their races. Medals, framed bibs, finish line photos, course maps. A corner of the home or office that tells a whole sporting adventure.
The medal hanger then becomes the central element of this space, around which other souvenirs are organized.

Option 3: A gift for another finisher
Do you know someone who has just completed their first Ironman or first marathon? A personalized triathlon medal hanger is the ideal gift. Original, useful, made in France—far from the generic gifts found everywhere.

An Ironman medal is unlike any other. It deserves a place that matches the effort it represents. Not a drawer, not a box—a wall.
