A Passion for Running

Welcome to the home of Mark aka The Running Blogfather - a 40 year-old dad, husband and marathon runner who’s beaten injury and is on the comeback trail!

runningbanana.com - custom quotes & inspiration on technical running shirts you can actually RUN in

passion for running category: running, running apparel, running gear, running gifts, running shirts on Thursday, June 8 2006

What is runningbanana and why are they so special? RunningBanana makes custom running shirts. Before you jump to conclusions, I’d like to tell you that they are not a cafepress ripoff - they are better. Specifically, they are better for runners.

The reason they are better for runners is that they’ll put custom graphics on technical running shirts. Yes, shirts that are cool. Running shirts that wick sweat away from your skin. Running Shirts you can run in. Running Shirts you can race in. And guess what else? They have gift certificates!

How great is that?

I know you’ll support runningbanana’s great product and I’m hoping you’ll support completerunning by buying the designs we’ve set up with them! Our designs are mixed in with some of runningbanana’s inspirational graphics so check the link often because more of our designs are in the process of being added!

Oh! And in case you didn’t know, these same designs can also be found at our cafepress store. The shirts at cafepress are not designed for running, but they are really cool - if I don’t say so myself. ;) So, now you can have a running shirt and a hangin’ around in shirt with a completerunning design on it.

One last thing: At runningbanana, you can even upload your own graphics to be placed on a shirt. It doesn’t get better than that. Does it?

Love some of the designs. You need to add one that says: “Yes, I do know that I am crazy.” It is amazing how often I get told that I’m nuts in response to me saying that I am training to run a marathon! That’s what is so great about the RBF, you all “get it”!!

Don’t laugh, okay, go ahead…I like the “Marathon Slut” and “Got Boston”. Hmmm “26.2 to beer” is pretty good to.

I bet Karen would like the one that says “I eat hills for breakfast”.

While we are on the subject running skirts: One of the relay teams that ran the 80K race that I participated in this past weekend wore matching running shirts and SKIRTS - running skirts are catching on in Germany too!
