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.

A quick run before chasing egg hunting kiddos :-)
Easter egg hunting and maybe a little bike repair
Lots of chocolate eggs and a quick run to stay fit
Training. Absolutely nothing. nada. zilch. zero. nope. Not by choice really, but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t enjoying the break from training just a little bit. About 8 weeks ago, I severely sprained my ankle while bouldering. Missed the crash pad. I was two weeks on crutches, and 6 weeks in an air cast. I have been doing stretching exercises and limping around for the past two weeks. It will most likely be another month before I can try and run. By that time it will be hot, hot, hot, here in Phoenix, I missed the best time of the year to run here.
Last year I ran a 50k with not so far off dreams of running maybe a 50 miler. Now? Countdown to the couch to 5k program…
No training this weekend, restarts Monday with a simple 3 mile run plus weight training
did some hill climbing and will do some high intensity intervals.
Going for a short ride.
A couple of trainer rides are on my schedule – TrainerRoad East Vidette and Gibbs. Last couple of trainer sessions before a rest week, which I’m looking forward to!
I plan on riding tomorrow morning before I go on a nice hike with my fiancé. Should be great weather for the occasion! I would love to get my hands on that new Garmin Fenix 3 HR and I’m pretty sure so would my fiancé because I can’t stop talking about it…
Race lookout mountain hill climb. A short tt.
Going to have a nice long bike ride after not really doing much this long weekend!
I would like to break the 1-hour mark in my 10k.
I’m going for a 16 mile long run!
Easter egg scramble with the kids, then some solo pleasure runs through the hills.
My training plans for the weekend involve/involved a nice 15 mile long run on Saturday with roughly half easy and half hard. Then a short recovery run on Sunday to get the blood pumping and to limber up a bit followed by training my stomach :) Happy Easter!
