Wouldn’t it be cool if you could pick any gadget that’s on my ‘2014 Winter Sports Gadget Recommendations’ list and call it your own? Yup, I agree. And, so does Clever Training. So they’re offering up to one lucky holiday duck just that.
Be it a new GPS watch, or a super-high end trainer – it can indeed be yours. It’s like the Price is Right Showcase of sports technology products. Minus having to guess the price or pay for it.
The rules are simple here, simply drop a comment below with the following:
To Enter: The details of one workout or race that you’ve got scheduled between now and the end of the year.
Simple enough? Good.
The giveaway entry period will run through Monday, December 8th, 2014 until 11:59PM US Eastern Time. I’ll be giving you one device of your choosing from the list from Clever Training. Winner will be chosen at random and announced on roughly Tuesday, assuming the interwebs work in London for me on Tuesday. One entry per person. The product will then be ordered immediately and shipped immediately assuming in stock.
This giveaway is sponsored by Clever Training, which I’ve got a great partnership with. As you probably remember, by picking up sports technology gadgets from Clever Training you support the site.

After a two months running hiatus, I ran 10.8 km yesterday. It was a slow run (according to Ray’s standard probably walking) but it felt good to be back on the road again. While running, a bird pooped on me. There’s a saying that it brings luck when you’re hit with bird poo, so maybe the bird brings me luck and Ray draws my comment. :-)
Thanks Ray for this great giveaway and happy running to all of you,
