Overview
Most of us know that bananas are chock-full of goodness, from loads of potassium to energy-boosting carbs primed for when we're getting active. But these yellow wonders can do more than just keep your hunger at bay, as this new nationwide event reveals.
This month, Australian Bananas is teaming up with four-time Olympic gold medalist swimmer Ariarne Titmus to launch the Banana Swim Pass — your free ticket to 70 participating pools around the country for one day only on Wednesday, January 21.
Following October's Banana Gym Pass, this summer-inspired alternative is perfect for those keen to power through a few laps or enjoy a laidback splash about. To score your free dip, simply buy a banana from any local grocer and bring it along to your nearest participating swim centre — head to the website to find yours.
"The Banana Swim Pass initiative is a fun way to encourage Australians of all ages to jump in and enjoy the benefits of getting active in the water," says Titmus. "I love that everyone can rock up with a banana and get in for free. Grab a banana, hit the pool, and make your body swim!"
