Some 6,000 runners took part in the race and everyone — even those who didn't finish — will get a special jersey to wear like a badge of pride, said Songkram Kraison, vice president of the Jogging Association of Thailand, one of the event's two organizers.

"The T-shirt will say, 'Finisher of 27.6 km,'" Songkram told The Associated Press. "The shirts are meant to apologize and also to honor runners who ran in the longer version of the half-marathon."

The Jogging Association of Thailand's website posted a statement Tuesday saying it will send the shirts by mail within 45 days.

Now That You Have the Stock, Get the T-shirt

Thousands of Packer fans and wannabe NFL owners are shelling out hundreds and thousands of dollars to buy shares of Green Bay Packer stock today.

You will be an actual owner of the team with many others, but you will have no say in draft decisions and who will be starting at running back next week.

Now you need to tell all your friends and relatives you are a part-owner of the Super Bowl Champions and get this t-shirt that is for sale on Ebay.  Great idea!
