Hey everyone! Here’s a lovely afternoon pick-me-up… a GIVEAWAY from Vega!!!
(source)
As you all know, I’m a huge fan of Vega for their 100% REAL plant-based ingredients — their smoothie infusion rocks my face off. I was beyond psyched when Kelly (a rep from the lovely company) let me know that they were launching a sports drink.
Instead of the high fructose mumbo jumbo, artificial ingredients and colors, the new Vega Sport contains organic plant-based ingredients.
Here’s some info from the website:
Vega Sport Performance Optimizer provides a complete array of key performance enhancing benefits including:
- Immediate and sustaining energy
- Increases endurance, aerobic and anaerobic capacity
- Enhances mental focus and motor performance
- Reduces stress and enhances immune system function
- Replenishes electrolytes lost during exercise
- Reduces inflammation, joint and muscle pain
- Improves body composition and reduces body fat
- Supports healthy weight management
Ingredients:
- Coconut oil
- Kombucha
- Yerba Mate
- Green Tea
- Rhodiola Extract (which improves mood, physical and mental performance)
- Panax ginseng extract (for immune system and stress reduction)
- Devil’s claw extract (for joint vitality)
- Tumeric extract (increase circulation)
- Ginger extract (reduces inflammation and aids digestion)
- Electrolytes
- Sprouted whole grain brown rice syrup (for healthy carb fuel)
- Palm nectar (for sustaining energy)
So in a nutshell, it’s the perfect pre-workout beverage and I CAN’T WAIT TO TRY SOME!!!!
So here’s what the lucky winner gets:
- A tub of Vega Sport (valued at $49.99) in lemon lime or acai berry
-Vega shaker cup

Amazing! The smoothie infusion totally rocks my face off too! I love that it is completely natural and plant based and it sustains me for hours!
I would drink the vega sports drink EVERY tuesday and thursday before I teach my 7 am pilates class so that I could motor through that class from 7-8, go to real (ah!) class from 8-2 then teach my second pilates class from 4-5. I need some major energy on those days!
Thanks for this awesome giveaway and for your even more amazing/inspiring blog

I would definitely like to fuel with some Vega for my long distance runs!
I would use it after a run or an intense cardio or strength training sesh most likely
Especially on a weekend long run. I love Vega, its fantastic for vegans like myself! haha.
Great contest idea, by the way.. however I don’t have a blog and don’t really use my Twitter. I’m a little confused if we have to do all 3 or how many of them..? Should I send an email too?
you don’t have to do all 3– it’s just 3 chances to win!
I do triathlons and would love to try this out on a bike ride or long run – I have a feeling it would be perfect!
Before my new favorite cardio class at equinox – triTread.
I would use this to fuel for a run!
I’d use it after one of your summer shape up lower body workouts that I did last week that both literally and figurately kicked my a**! And it felt awesome!
I’d bodypump!!!!
i would love to use this vega sport for marathon training as well as long bike rides!! i need something to keep me energized!

I definately need to refuel after doing a double of hot yoga + hot pilates right in a row!
for the 10k im training for!
I’m training for my 5th marathon right now – the Houston Marathon, so I would use it for a recovery drink after my weekly medium long and long weekend runs. I’m curious to see how Vega would compare to the recovery drink I currently use.
I would definitely use this to help me prep for my very first 5k! I have never been much of a runner, but decided to start. It has been going well, but I know that this would really spur me on!
I love love love vega. I would use it to refuel after my kettlebell workouts. I am in search of a vegan post-workout drink!

I would use this in my morning smoothie to keep me awake and energized through 8 hours of class a day!
I would drink it before or after a walk/run.
Been reading your blog for awhile and I guess this giveaway forced me to finally delurk- long overdue I know. Anyways, if I won the giveaway, I would use the vega to fuel me for my running workouts. But really I would love to slip it to my family who prefers gatorade and other shall we say “less healthy” food in general. What can I say I care about their health!
hooray for de-lurking! thanks for saying hi and hopefully we’ll see ya around more often
