Or 13.1 sticker
That's even worse. You can't go the distance but you still want to brag and run with the big boys.
I've got a 1.02 sticker from a doughnut and running nano-marathon.
Or 13.1 sticker
Huh. I thought those random number stickers where obscure Bible verses.
It took me forever to figure out what the "marathon badges" were for. You know, the stickers with a random number on them?
Even now that I know the purpose is to make sure everyone knows you've completed a marathon (because what's the point of completing a marathon if people don't know you did), I feel like they're pretty ridiculous. You can buy them anywhere, and it's not like anyone verifies your story. I wanted to get one just on the offhand someone asks me about it.
"What? Oh, no, I don't run. That's my record for number of tacos eaten in one minute."
Those would be the ones with colons, not periods.

Heh, well; that guy...

I think they're just showing you that running is their hobby. The same reason people have "I'd rather be fishing!" bumper stickers, or the Browning deer, NRA, how many kids they have, truck nuts, "Obama 2008" or any other bumper sticker. Every single one of them is equally pretentious.
