Regardless of the distance a runner has conquered and at what pace, satisfaction and a medal await them at the finish line as a reward for the work involved!

 

Initially, the Riga Marathon medals were adorned with views of Riga, but since 2019, the design of the marathon medals has been entrusted to various artists, thus giving the medal an additional artistic value. Since then, the designers of the medals have been well-known artists and designers in Latvia and worldwide.

Medals RIGA

For the next four years, the Rimi Riga Marathon will develop its art concept in close collaboration with the Latvian National Museum of Art.
