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.

    Finally spring, meaning roads without snow here north, so the offroadbike with spiky tires will be parked and the racer will get its first trip this season.

  20. Kevin Wilson

    My training plans involved climbing Ben Nevis in Scotland, then riding the bike from Fort William to Oban, to go across to the Isle of Kerera to run around the island. In the end, the only exercise I’ve had has been lifting cans of beer to my lips and unwrapping easter eggs. Oh the shame I feel :-)

  41. Erik

    Week four of a Marathon training cycle… My will is weak, my shins aren’t happy, quads are wondering why; it’s time to sit in a lawn-chair, drink a beer or seven, (carbo loading… you know…) chase the kids around and eat too much. I’m a believer in taking my recovery as seriously as my training, and Monday the mileage and intensity jacks up so having a strong mind and healed up body will make the next few weeks fly by!

  42. Andrew

    Fallen Comrades Half Marathon at West Point to get in some hill work and support a good cause then 20 miles on the bike to keep the legs loose.
