Ba-na-na ooh na-na...half of my heart's made from bananas oooh na-na...
A revolutionary banana-themed run through the park, scientifically proven to make you happier, healthier, and full of potassium.

Your first stop: the Banana Stand, where we hear there's always money. Anyway, that's where we'll check you in and give you a banana-themed bib to pin to your clothes. Your name will be giant on this bib, because numbers are for prisoners, not for runners. This is also where you'll receive your bright yellow banana swag, because everyone knows that green bananas are yucky.

Next, you'll lace up those shoes and run around the one mile loop in Boling Park, which will be known as the Banana Boulevard while we're running on it! With each mile you'll pass the Banana Cabana, our rockin' aid station. There will be plenty of banana-flavored goodies, including banana bread, banana smoothies, banana pudding, and, well, bananas, along with our usual buffet of candy and cookies and chips and shots of pickle juice.

We're not sure pickles go well with bananas, but hey, we won't judge your culinary choices. 

There will also be energy gels, water and Gatorade, and all the Vaseline, band aids, and other medical supplies you could possibly need, and they will be kept in stock all day by volunteers donning banana costumes, because what else would volunteers be wearing at a race called Go Bananas!? Post-race food includes hot dogs (veggie dogs too), pulled pork sandwiches, fruit galore, banana cake - duh, and whatever else we feel like feeding you. The food stays out until the last person finishes, because the last person is just as important as the first one.
