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.

Two rest days coming up I think – been an intense week. Will probably have a leisurely cycle somewhere and go to the beach (though storms are forecast for around here so that might be hopeful)
I’ll be running 10 or 12 miles Saturday morning, and hashing Saturday afternoon. If my legs aren’t too sore, I’ll run five miles or so on Sunday – depends on the weather, too!

I’m going to try to do a little part of the parcours of Gent-Wevelgem on saterday.
The plan for this weekend is to continue my recovery from a bunch of running ailments. Nothing but stretching and mobility movements for me.

Hi Ray,
Will do a three-days-in-a-row workout, through local woods.
No, not three days running, just three runs on consecutive days – pffeh, what were you thinking :-)
Cheers

A Short swim on saturday morning and a sort of long run(>15K) afterwards.
