It’s definitely time for another giveaway. Given Valentine’s Day is tomorrow, it only seems right to show you some lovin’. But, it would seem sorta awkward to give you a present and not also give the person you love (or, at least kinda-sorta-like) a present as well. No?
Thus, I’ll be giving away two units as part of this giveaway – one for each of you. It’ll be like a couples giveaway, though you need not be a couple to enter or win. I’m sure everyone can find a loving friend that is worthy of a new GPS device (or similar). If you can’t think of such a person in your life, I’d suggest expanding your circle of friends.
Those who win will get two units valued up to $270US (each) from Clever Training. This could be currently shipping units like the Polar M400, or, upcoming units like the Garmin Vivoactive once it ships. As long as the value is under $270US per device you can pick whatever you want from Clever Training.
Here’s a few ideas to get ya thinking:
The Fitbit Surge GPS watch
TomTom Runner Cardio GPS watch (with optical HR sensor)
Garmin Vivoactive GPS smartwatch
Polar M400 GPS watch
Mio Fuse Activity Tracker with optical HR sensor
Suunto Ambit2 S GPS multisport watch
How to enter:
Leave a comment with: A description of your Valentine’s Day training or racing plans.
Simple as that! As usual, Clever Training is sponsoring the giveaway. Remember you can save 10% off anything they sell through either the coupon code or the DCR/CT VIP program, plus of course free US shipping for goods over $75US.
Thanks for reading!
The giveaway entry period will run through Monday, February 16th, 2015 until 11:59PM US Eastern Time. Winner will be selected randomly. One entry per person. The product will then be ordered immediately and shipped immediately, assuming in stock.

Valentines day will start with a little breakfast on the bed for my girlfriend, then to the dentist (grrrr) and later on some small interval running training because I’m recovering from a big Avalanche accident last year.

As part of my marathon training, I have a 26km marathon pace run to put in. Tomorrow’s forecast high is -10C. My wife will prefer to go to the gym, but she does like like to go alone. So, after my run, we will go to the gym together and run on the treadmill together.
Once her run is in, we will come back home for a glass of orange juice and a special Valentine’s Day nap. I just hope I have some stamina left!

A good relationship is a like bike ride . There will be days that will look like a 16% uphill. There will be days that will make life as joyful as a countryside century. Yes there will be those little “flats” that crop up that you will need to fix . But once you have crossed that uphill , fixed all the flats and you look back – it’s worth every single minute of your lifetime
Tomorrow , I will be taking the love of my life , my cervelo s1 on a long ride. She has stuck with me , I have with her. I couldn’t have asked for a better companion :)
