5 Questions with Banana Buzz Bomb

Welcome to Saturday and this week's edition of 5 questions with...

Today's post features Heidi of Banana Buzz Bomb.


Heidi is an awesome FitFluential Ambassador, runner, triathlete, OmniTen member, vegan, and an overall cool chic. I love reading her posts and chatting with her on Twitter.


I wanted to feature Heidi today specifically, because she is tacking the Dirty Girl mud run in Indianapolis today. Can't wait to see your recap! Also since Kyle are I are beginning our journey to eat more vegetarian meals (details next week), I thought it would be great to highlight a healthy, vegan athlete.
And now....let's get chatty with Banana Buzz Bomb:


Hey ya'll!  I'm Heidi AKA BananaBuzzbomb.  Over the past 5 years I’ve transitioned from a non-runner to someone that can hold her own during half-marathons and triathlons.  Within those years I’ve also become vegetarian and now vegan. This is only the beginning of many changes to come throughout my life. Come along for the ride at http://www.bananabuzzbomb.com 


Fit2Flex 5 Questions:
1. Why did you start blogging?
I started blogging in 2006 as a way to keep family members up-to-date on what we were doing. As time went on I began to document my running journey, challenges, along with my adventure into vegetarianism and now veganism.  More than anything I now see it as my own personal outlet.  It holds me accountable and is a place I can share my journey with those that are interested.


2. What is your most popular blog post?
Does Columbia OmniHeat Really Work? 




3. What post are you most proud of?
Before Reaching For A Pill, Make Changes! 


4. What is your favorite healthy treat?
I seriously love bananas and could eat them day in and day out.  However a nice sorbet every so often is a tasty treat.


5. What is a typical Saturday like for you?
Wake up, do housework including dusting, vacuuming, yard work, and then head out for my long run around 11a. Once finished I'm ready to enjoy time with my husband which usually means heading out to dinner and bumming around town.


Not only is Heidi running Dirty Girl today, but she's on a road trip with Chevrolet. You can follow along with her and all the dirty details on Twitter. Follow her @BananaBuzzBomb and hashtag #Chevrolet #GoDirtyGirl
