Now that everyone has recovered from the Giveaway Extravaganza, it’s time to get this DCR Giveaway Show back on the road again. And there’s no better time to do so than mid-way through the 2016 Summer Olympics. Think of this as a bit of a training-pep talk, aimed at pulling you away from 8 hours of water kayaking prelims, and back out to the great outdoors. And no better way to get prepared for that than a new trainer.
So I’ve decided to giveaway said new trainer. Well, actually, technically my friends at Clever Training will be giving away said new Wahoo KICKR trainer. See, they’ve just re-inked their deal with Wahoo Fitness, and now they’re all Wahoo’d up. Or something like that. Either way, you get a trainer. You’ll have to carry it from the front door to your pain cave though. Neither I nor the UPS man is going to do that for you.
To enter: Simply leave a comment below with what Olympic events you’ve been watching. Easy as that!
Yup, it’s that easy! And yes, you can enter no matter where you live. Brazil, Boise, or Bulgaria – all are OK! Perhaps being all Rio’d up, someone from Brazil will win.
Remember that by supporting the site through Clever Training you also can save 10% on basically everything they sell, either using the DCR 10% coupon code of DCR10BTF, or for some products the VIP points program.
The giveaway entry period will run through August 15th, 2016 until 11:59PM US Eastern Time. Winner will be selected randomly, not on coolness of the Olympic sport you selected. Selecting ping-pong may have unknown results on your odds.
P.S. – If you’re also a European reader, you can double-down on giveaways with Clever Training Europe’s massive summer monthly giveaway. Double-boom!

Looking forward to the athletics and marathon.
Swimming!
I’m watching any event, whatever is on TV or what the boys like. Boys have really liked fencing though
Usually gymnastics, but I work with a former gold medal swimmer and have paid far more attention to 4×100 than ever before.
All that I’m interested in are the sprint events on the track. 100, 200, 400, and their respective relays. Which means next week, I’d be all ready to get on that trainer and ride alongside their runs.
Watched as many sports as I can, although always watch the cycling. Interesting road course, with tricky descent, although manageable I believe if the riders didn’t push the envelope so much.
Enjoyed the first night at the velodrome yesterday, Another Gold for Kenny, as well as Wiggo back and Trott, what more could a cycling enthusiast wish for.
Canoeing, something I did in my youth is always good, as is diving, just how do they do it.
Swimming, always watch swimming due to being a qualified starter, so know what it takes.
Hockey
Lots of swimming but I can’t wait for track
swimming, waterpolo, cycling, athletics and pretty much everything
