I’m sure many of you received various sports gadgets over the last few weeks as part of the holidays. But for those unlucky elves who received a half-eaten gel packet in their Christmas stocking from their not-so-significant others, I’ve got a festivus of a present for you: This giveaway.
The winner will get a $500 credit to CleverTraining.com, my most excellent partner in this giveaway crime. By supporting the site through Clever Training you also can save 10% on basically anything they sell. If you win, you can use that credit for anything from the new Garmin Fenix3 to a BSX Gen2 Insight to a random pair of socks to the 4iiii’s Precision Power Meter, or heck, even towards a new trainer. Whatever floats your boat.
How to enter:
Simply leave a short description of what product you’d get and why (but don’t worry, you can change your mind later if you win).
The reason you need a short description of ‘’why’ is that if you just put a simple product name (i.e. A360), you’ll likely get caught up in my SPAM filters. And nobody wants to be sandwiched between two pieces of SPAM. Got all that?
Good luck!
The giveaway entry period will run through Thursday, December 31st, 2015 until 11:59PM US Eastern Time. Winner will be selected randomly. One entry per person. The selected product/products will then be ordered immediately and shipped immediately, assuming they’re in stock.

I would go for a Fenix 3 and never be lost again :)
A new Garmin running watch or perhaps a smart trainer
I would either want the Fenix 2, Fenix 3, or one of the new Garmin FR watches.
PowerTap P1 , to work on my left – right balance
I’d like to get the Garmin Forerunner 230 GPS Running Watch & Activity Tracker. I like to check the data while I’m running, and this watch seems like a good fit. And I like the look of it!
I want the Elite Qubo Digital Smart B+ trainer so I can train for a triathlon during a harsh Boston winter!
4iiii Power Meter, because I wan’t to improve my training and zwift work better with a real power meter
I would love some powertap P1s so I can start training with power and can better manage by bike effort in races.
Since I’m just getting into biking I’d get myself some proper bike apparel.
YES!!!!!!!!
:)
A VIRB X, to film my upcoming ski trip
Fenix 3 to replace my Fenix 2 or down payment on PowerTap C1
Powertap P1 Power Pedals because I want to know my power output so I don’t overbike my races
PLEASE!!!
Fenix 3 – becuase it looks awesome
a new fenix 3
Got to be a power meter – having just started using Trainer Road, seeing that Virtual Power has whetted my appetite for the real thing.
I would give my self a wahoo kickr…??
I would love a fenix 3 or a power meter a stages maybe.
WOW!! THANK YOU!
:0
4iiii Power meter please please please! I would love some power for my ride!
Garmin Fenix 3 and Scosche RHYTHM+
A new 920XT…. The best there is…
I’d purchase the Powertap P1 power meter pedals. Now that I’m living in flat Dallas, I need to know how much the wind is increasing my power output!
I’d love to upgrade to a wheel based power meter to put on my TT & road bike.
4iiii power meter!!!;)
A Fenix 3 please. Because my old Fenix 2 really doesn’t work after it may have frozen at Everest base camp!
I would love to complete my Polar watch collection with the V800. It looks like an amazing watch and also would allow swimming heart rate collections.
Thank you
Alan
Garmin Fenix3, to kick cycling workouts up a notch with connections to other sensors.
Scosche Rhythm + Heart rate monitor because I’m beginning to hate a chest strap.
4iiii power meter
I would really wish to have the Forerunner 630 since I’m a data geek runner, who not only enjoys looking at performance indicators, but also works on improving them from training to training session. Pleeeeese! :-)
I would ask for the Fenix3 because my sister’s Garmin 220 broke and she’s a good sister who deserves a multisport watch!
I need a new trainer. The Kickr Snap looks like a perfect fit to improve my winter cycling training!
CWX tights to get me through the NY winter, a quality pair of sunglasses, and some BASE Salt for good measure. That stuff got me through IMLP in July, but I dropped my last precious tube in the middle of my bike leg during my last tri (ohhh, the humanity!!!)
I’d like to have the Forerunner 630 and to start to take running more seriously in 2016!
I would really like to get the Fenix 3 so that I can record my snowshoe and nordic ski adventures on my “off” days.
I need to get myself in shape for my son. An activity tracker like a FitBit HR is just what I need to hold myself accountable.
I need a new running watch. One of them fancy new Garmin watches with the HR built in would be perfect!
I would get a the Teeki Hot Pants Deer Medicine. Probably a new watch as well – maybe the Fenix
Would LOVE a Fenix 3- need help badly getting beyond 5K’s!
Quarq Riken AL BB30. Because I’d like a power meter and compact crankset on my road bike.
Never got the Fenix 3 Red HRM Run bundle wished I had one :)
I would probably go with the 920XT Tri Bundle. The swim HR interests me a lot as I have gone from a non-swimmer, to a terrible swimmer, to a mid-pack swimmer on a good day. I’m now at the point where I need to get a bit more technical about my swimming to continue to improve and being able to identify zones and corresponding HR’s would be huge. Evaluating perceived exertion on the bike and run I’m pretty good at, but in the pool I seem to be a bit hopeless.
Cheers Ray!
FENIX 3
I’d love a new Garmin 630 with faster satellite lock than my 610.
I’d go for the Powertap P1 pedals.
I find myself in dire need of a Garmin Edge 520. My 500 just quit and I’m short of cash
I would like to win a Garmin 920xt with tri straps,’couse I am relly try to take my efforts to the next level.After finishink my first and secin olimpic distance last year now I train hard to reach the half and the ironman special distance.So this would add a goo addition to training
Thanks
András
Hello, I have been meaning to get the Garmin Vivo Active because it is in my price range, sort of….Its a little more than i can afford. I have been trying to get back into shape and have lacked the motivation. I am also a person who likes to do my research on products and this site has helped a lot. Keep up the good work. Thanks for the chance to win!
Quarq Power Meter, to really up my game.
I’d get a fenix 3 because I want a watch with Ultratrac mode.
I’d get a Garmin Forerunner 235 because, since I don’t “live to run,” like so many of the other posters, I’ve used fitness tech as a ‘hack’ to ensure I’m not doing anymore than I really need to get the right/best/optimal workout.
GoPro Hero 4 black would go down very nicely!
I would get a Garmin Forerunner 630. Because I have been loving running and would want to experience my first gps watch!
I would choose a fenix 3, without a doubt. I really believe it would help me improve myself on swimming and running mostly. Maybe someday i can use it for training for ironman. Would be dream come true.
Garmin 235, because out with the old stinky, never-stays-put-unless-its-too-tight chest straps and in with the optical heart rate monitoring!
I’d put it towards Quarq Riken AL BB30 110 BCD power meter. What use is my road bike without power measurement?
I would love to get the Garmin Fenix3. It has features more useful for my trail runs than does my current 910xt.
Hello,
I would get the garmin 235. As a person new to exercising, I like to see the fruits of my labor- in the form of numbers and graphs!! The 235 would help me continue to challenge myself to be a better me. I’m still not in love with exercise…but I love to set goals and accomplish them.
Garmin 235 for sure and a new pair of running shoes!
Edge 520. To have strava segments on my stem.
I would love to get a Scosch Rythym optical heart rate armband! For some reason the straps don’t work on me. Perhaps due to my body shape, I can’t run much longer than 30 minutes before it drops out.
The 320xt is showing signs of age, I would like a Fenix3 to help keep me motivated.
Maybe a powertap p1 power meter :) Who knows :)
looking for a Power Meter.
I think i’d use it towards a power meter. I’d like to complete my first century ride in 2016.
Garmin Fenix 3 for the win. Thank you.
4iiii’s Precision Power Meter as I would give it to my wife who would then most definitely kick my butt on our rides together.
The Fenix 3 for my girlfriend. I believe she is going to crush her marathon PR this year and BQ. I just bought myself the Fenix 2 for my first Half-Iron but I want her to have the 3 for her races.
The Garmin 920xt for sure. I love my Garmin 410 but it died recently so I would love an upgrade.
I would take the 4iiii Precision Power Meter
A Fenix 3 for 2016
Happy new year to every DC fans
I’d like a BSX Gen2 device, no more labtests for thresholds, huray!
I would get the Cycleop Powersync or Powerbeam. I love the idea of riding courses and having resistance change automatically based on course profile.
Would love to upgrade my old garmin 500……
It would be nice to have a Fenix 3 !
Time to run, good health and a Fenix :o)
Garmin Forerunner 630 HR,I absolutely need it to improve my workout!
Wish I got a Kickr
I’d go for the Forerunner 630 + HRM, to replace my crappy M400, but all I got for Christmas was candy and books. Help me! ;-)
I wanted any varia ligthts and radar. Did not get any :(
I’d grab myself a Garmin Forerunner 920XT so I can retire my 310XT and stop looking like I have a small orange and grey computer attached to my wrist.
Go pro session, because my Sony sport cam can change between photo and video with out remote control
Many options not sure what I would picked. A power meter, Edge 1000 or a trainer to support my winter training.
My ideal one would be a brand new trainer, the Tacx genius looks the best one for my needs
Hmm, probably Fenix 3. Thanks for the giveaway!
As many watches as possible, a la dcrainmaker. Or a 920xt if i could only choose one
Hmm, probably the Fenix 3. Thanks for the giveaway!
Garmin FR920XT. Trying more triathlon this year – so I needs me a triathlon watch. :)
kickr snap
Polar V800 would fit me to make me fit! In black please!
Kinda wanted a GoPro…. But got one for my dad instead :)
I’d love a Garmin watch that can track my swim workouts!
I’d like to get the 4iiii’s Precision Power Meter so that I don’t have to keep swapping my current Stages between bikes.
4iiii power meter for my winter/training bike
Fenix 3 to help with the new year’s resolutions…
I have a Garmin 620 and am rather envious of the 630’s features so would have to get that.
4iiii’s Precision Power Meter!! i want a power meter!! btw, nomatter the brand at least… :)
A Garmin Fenix 3 would really help me kick off the New Year in style.
