This is the last giveaway.
I mean, the last giveaway until the annual Giveaway Extravaganza next month of course! I’ll let you read all about what that madness was like last year, but for now, we’ve got to get down to business for this giveaway!
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 the vast majority of what they sell, or use their updated VIP program for anything else. If you win, you can use that credit for anything from the new Garmin FR735XT (in stock!), to a Cycliq Fly12 camera/light, this crazy foot massager thingy (really) or heck, even a chunk towards SRAM eTAP or the new CycleOps Hammer Trainer. Whatever floats your boat.
How to enter:
Simply leave a short description of what your training plans are for the weekend ahead. For those in the US, it’s a long weekend – so substituting your BBQ’ing plans for training plans is acceptable.
The reason you need a short description of ‘what’ is that if you just put a simple one word answer (i.e.5k or hot dog), you’ll likely get caught up in my SPAM filters. And nobody wants to be sandwiched between two pieces of SPAM. This is a pulled pork kinda place. Got all that?
Good luck!
The giveaway entry period will run through Monday, May 30th, 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.
Just a short easy run this weekend, and some biking. Recovering from a hamstring issue that forced me to DNF a marathon a few weeks ago.
20 mile run on the Eastern Divide course to prepare for the race in June!
Planning some recovery mileage after my 10km race this week. Hope to get a long run in too.
I’ll be riding two centuries unassisted this weekend to prep for the Double Triple Bypass!
6hrs hard and fast mtb ride on Saturday, 8hrs moderate mtb ride on Sunday. I tell the misses that I have to ride that much, it’s training. In reality I just love riding and competing gives me a valid reason to escape the family :)
Weightlifting – SL 5×5 and hopefully getting the bike in service for summer!
Going to a beer festival on Saturday instead of training, BBQ on Sunday and then picking back up on Monday with a nice long swim and short run
Saturday is a shake out day before Sunday’s 101 mile, 10,164 feet of climbing race. A gift card would make getting a Kickr possible so that I can stop roasting my tires.
Have a 5K time trial to end the season Saturday and the seven days rest. BBQ will be fun
My plan looks to be:
Sat: Morning Run, stuff face at a birthday lunch, kayak a bit
Sunday: Stuff my face at a BBQ, chase children around (which i think counts as interval training right?)
Monday: Mountain Bike morning, Hope for no rain afternoon, kayak a bit if i didn’t get to it saturday.
Hoping to get in an extra run, with the additional day off. Easy run on Sat, and maybe a run with the kids/jogging stroller on Monday.
If the weather holds out, I’m going to try out my new commute on the day off.
First, thanks for the blog and of course for the giveaway. For the weekend first football with the kids and then bike and run training.
Bike 180km on Saturday and 10km run on Sunday

I’ll be breaking in my new smoker with a brisket and a pork shoulder accompanied by many 12 oz. curls.
I’ll be combining an early morning fitness walk with my M400 and taking my dSLR to capture some Wisconsin farmland images. Hope I don’t capture any ticks along the way, I don’t like picking up hitchhikers. That Garmin 735 looks real interesting.
Heading out for a metric century ride with some friends, then BBQ to recover.
It will be a long bike with a brick Saturday, long run on Sunday. Nothing fancy.
10-12 mile long run on Saturday, rest Sunday, then 3x .5 mi intervals at 90-95% HRR. I’ll probably throw in some goblet squats and planks somewhere as well.

40km warm up ride early Sat then to the 2016 Warrior Dash Ontario , 80-100 km ride Sunday with a coffee stop. :)
