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.
Sat – Bike test
Sun – 50 minute run and a 1500 swim
Mon – bike, run, beer
Run in the forest and party on Saturday evening. Dancing can count!
Running a 10K with my nephew, his first ever race, who is graduating from high school and one that I rarely see since we live 500 miles apart.

It’s Memorial Day weekend so I’ll be at the same place I am every year on that holiday: Running the BolderBoulder! This year marks the 19th time I’ve done it.
Unfortunately, I am battling a stress fracture in my left foot, so it is only swimming for me. A $600 gift card to Clever Training would certainly ease the pain!
Some heavy VO2max intervals to start the weekend then finally a break from training, first time not riding 2 straight days in 3 months.
Quick Zwift sessions between parenting :)
Racing the duathlon at the NOLA Endurance Festival this weekend!
I got a 1 hr trail ride in today…I will most likely get a short run in over the weekend, but I will be having friends over to my family’s vacation home on candlewood lake (in Connecticut)…so I wouldn’t hold my breath on that run…Instead I will likely be doing a combination of wakesurfing, wakeboarding, waterskiing, boating, drinking beer, hanging out with friends…and get back on track Monday evening/Tuesday Morning.
Hiking for me – as much as I love to run or ride my bike I have to do less damaging activities due to recent injuries :(
Training for upcoming Cross Country season
I’ll be doing open water swims on saturday and monday. running on saturday
I will be visiting Chicago for my birthday/Memorial Day, so my weekend activity will mostly be limited to walking between museums, restaurants and boat rides on Lake Michigan. So, with that lack of training in mind I did my weekend brick before work this morning. I’ll be back Monday night and may do an easy 40 minute run to get back into things for the rest of the week.
I’ll be fat biking in west Michigan, then grilling and stair repeats.
Two easy runs
Running as much of Silver Falls State Park as I can.
Tomorrow I have as long bike with some track work planned after and Sunday I have some bike intervals with an easy, longer run after
Continuing cycling re-hab from the hip fracture; 5 months post-op. Cycling works well now, running not at all.
Preferably getting a long ride outside, but probably just a short turbo session :)
No training plans, as I’ll be running in the Ottawa Race Weekend Half Marathon on Sunday, where the forecasted high temperature is 33 Celsius (91 Fahrenheit). It doesn’t look like the conditions warrant taking a stab at a PB. What a waste of a training cycle. Maybe in the fall.
160 km race on sunday!
Saturday 6km and 6 x 1000 @4:10
Sunday 16km @ 5:15
BBQ on Saturday sleep in on Monday. Maybe activity tracker?
Let’s see, I’ve got a 25mi ride Saturday, then trail running in the hills Sunday, and an open water swim Monday followed by a team BBQ! I’ll also try to squeeze in some kayaking to change things up!

Planning a 50 mile plus ride on Saturday and a 5-6 mile run Sunday.

Long ride remembering the fallen
I’m thinking of a bike Saturday followed by a long run Sunday. Monday will be dedicated to smoking meat and copious amounts of beer.
