In full: The race was very well organised and chasing the bananas made it fun. The t-shirts were good as were the goodie bags. Weather was very warm but the race was still nice. Well worth a go.

In short: Go banana go
In full: Thank you to the organisers for a great day. Special thanks to the bananas who must have got a bit soggy on such a warm day... Very glad that the Pagoda hill was taken out, guess that was due to the path being relaid and reseeded! Very enjoyable

In short: Great fun for a great cause
In full: Nice sunny day, maybe a little too warm for racing though ... felt very sorry for the bananas, I think they did brilliantly!
Was expecting the Pagoda hill to be included so a pleasant surprise when it wasn't, making for a completely flat course.
Happy that this race is practically on my doorstep! Very nice atmosphere. Will be back to chase more bananas next year!!

In full: Well done to all of the banana runners. I did not expect it to be that hot...thankfully plently of water stops - that just show you the organisation was spot on. Good support by the stewards & crowds esp at the end. Great event - glad I travelled but shame its so far away. Need to have a word with whoever about the car parking costs - give the money made (& fines) to Leukaemia Research. Well done to everyone.

In full: Very hot, but had a fantastic time.
Goody bag had everything you need to recover after a race, organisation was faultless and the stewards were smiling and encouraging everyone.
Well done to Bananans.
