Medals and prizes are in store for top finishers at Reggae Marathon. Everyone who finishes Reggae Marathon gets a Finisher Medal as usual of course but beyond that prizes are available. The main overseas & local prize structure will remain similar as 2014: Reggae Marathon Awards. Here’s what changes for locals:
