The DCR Easter Bunny $600 Gadget Giveaway

easter-egg-giveaway

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.

  26. Justin Bundschuh

    Starting out the weekend with a 40mile TT ride on Saturday. Sunday AM starts early with the beautiful trail run up Zanja peak and quickly turns to chasing my two young boys all over grandmas yard in search of Easter eggs. If all goes well I will be nicely medicated with mimosas at the time the kids reach the meltdown point, somewhere in between sugar high and needing a nap. The wife will mysteriously be no where to be found forcing me to wrangle the little Tasmanian Devils to bed. On Monday, while fully regretting the combination of ham, alcohol and pie, I will begrudgingly drag my carcass from my warm bed only to step on Legos while fumbling around in the dark looking for my running socks. The distance of Monday’s run is yet to be determined as the severity of my forthcoming hangover and Lego wound has yet to be disclosed.

  27. Ashwin

    Easy group run on Sunday with a friendly bunch, 5 to 7 miles

  28. Taking the bunny on a hike across southern Denmark.
