First off, no, I’m not giving away the Easter Bunny. That’d involve going to a nearby shopping mall and somehow kidnapping the poor guy as he gets photos taken with small children. And I’m pretty sure that’d be awkward for everyone involved.
Instead, I’ll be like an Easter Bunny – and some lucky duck (or bunny as it may be) will get their gadget wishes fulfilled. No searching for semi-rotten poorly water-colored eggs required.
The winner will get a $600 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 HR, to a Fitbit Blaze, a pair of Hawaiian themed underwear (yes, actually) to the WatTeam Power Meter, or heck, even towards a new trainer. Whatever floats your boat.
How to enter:
Simply leave a short description of what your training plans are for the weekend ahead – with or without the bunny. Note that eating chocolate eggs is totally valid nutrition.
The reason you need a short description of ‘what’ is that if you just put a simple one word answer (i.e.5k), 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 Monday, March 28th, 2016 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 will be riding an indoor trainer as part of therapy for a fractured hip AND dreaming of riding outdoors.
Today I spent some time in the pool. Saturday morning I’ll go for a long run, followed by several more miles at the mall (mother-in-law is in town). Sunday will be a much needed day of rest and recovery chocolate.
Hopefully get a good 3+ hour endurance ride in as I need to train for a 200 mile gravel epic. But also have to go to a wedding this weekend.
I plan on a nice Saturday morning long ride followed by a nice brunch!
Going hiking next 4 days to prepare for my trip to Nepal in April.
Today was skiing with the fam. I’m attempting my last long run before Boston on Monday. But with a pulled/torn hammy, we will see what I can muster.
I am going to ride up and down Gibraltar Rd 3 times
we are going skiing Saturday, as recommended to take the day and do something different, fun, and relaxing. Then back to the routine of pushing hard on the bike next week.
Still undecided on a 100k bike or 15 mile run on Saturday…perhaps I’ll just sleep in and eat chocolate!
Drinking, Cadbury eggs, and maybe a run.
Telemark skiing on Saturday, then running, maybe indoor bike on sunday.

I’m going to run a trail 10k on Saturday morning, and probably a little stretching and relaxing on Sunday.
Well, Good Friday I put in 5 hill repeats and did some other running after that.
Holy Saturday will be a run from 6 to 9 miles. I’m not sure yet if that will be on the treadmill or outside. It is supposed to rain and be kind of chilly. And with my half marathon coming up April 9, I don’t want to chance getting sick.
Easter Sunday will be a rest day.
I’m still recovering from a foot injury, so I’ll be cycling this weekend (rather than running) to play it safe.
Restart open water swimming training
Still trying to teach myself to swim so my goal is not to drown and if that holds up, get in a good ride on the tri bike.
Fri: Bike, Sat:Rest, Sun:Bike, Mon:Swim
Training plan for the Ironman Vineman kicks off, a couple of fitness tests on the bike and the run.
This weekend I hope to increase my step count to 12,000 per day. And maybe it’s time to get the bike ready for spring.

Eat less, bike more
Super excited to run a hippity hop easter trot :)
Indoor trainer ride Saturday & Sunday morning and maybe a hike with kids Saturday afternoon.
Normal long run on Sunday but might try and fit in a swim too. No long run is complete without adequate post run snacking but this weekend it has to be a dark chocolate egg (or two).
So, my training plan this weekend is a long nap after Easter egg hunting on Saturday followed by another long nap after church on Sunday.
Run 5 miles every day this long weekend.
Thanks!

I just started building a base last week after signing up for my first marathon this fall! With a five-month-old at home, I’m just hoping to get out and run both days.
The first thing is to get off the couch. This weekend weather looks good and should get in at least 40 miles on the bike and also a little hike. Happy Easter!
After a springbreak backpacking trip, I’ll be riding 50 on the bike tomorrow (Saturday) and relaxing on Sunday. Happy Easter.

Saturday is a medium 9-11 mile easy run, Sunday is a Q session of 17 miles with 14 of them at MRP. Coming off a nice 13.1 PR last weekend, this will be my first go at a more agressive MRP…wish me luck!
