I’m sure many of you received various sports gadgets over the last few weeks as part of the holidays. But for those unlucky elves who received only a half-eaten gel packet in their Christmas stocking from their not-so-significant others, I’ve got a festivus of a present for you: This giveaway.
The winner will get a $500 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 (or get points instead). If you win, you can use that credit for anything from the GoPro Hero5 Black to a Garmin Vivoactive HR to a random pair of socks to the PowerTap C1 power meter, or heck, even towards a new trainer. Whatever floats your boat (note: they don’t sell boats).
How to enter:
Simply leave a short description of what product you’d get and why (but don’t worry, you can change your mind later if you win).
The reason you need a short description of ‘why’ is that if you just put a simple product name (i.e. F3), 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 Thursday, December 29th, 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.

A Garmin Edge 520 so I know how to get him me after exploring a new road
Fenix 3 – or I’ll be probably stuck with F2 until it dies :)
I would probably buy a Vivoactive HR. I’m having trouble with the chest strap on my Vivoactive. I would also like the Garmin bike speed sensor and cadence for the winter.
Fenix 3 for me!!
I would love a go pro. Hoping to get out on the trails and make some recordings.
Gotta go with that wahoo kicker. Snow, aerobars and 23mm tires…which one doesn’t belong!lol
I’d probably go for a power meter, as that’s about the only training tool I have yet to purchase.
Garmin 520 – because I’m getting old and the numbers on my 920xt are small.
Maybe but a gadget, but I’d love a swim skin. If it’s a gadget, then a new Garmin bike computer.
A forerunner 235 so I can actually follow doctors orders and monitor my HR while trying to get back into training for a full
Garmin fenix. Hopefully the new model comes out soon.

Go pro to record some Spain cycling trips
A new Garmin watch…mine is a dinosaur and is no longer letting me upload data to my computer.
Some power tap pedals or a 735xt, gadgets are king!
A Garmin 820 would be nice for biking when the weather turns warm.
Powertap P1’s for my wife (obviously putting some money on table on top of the prize money), as she does not yet have a power meter.
735xt to replace my old 910xt :)…
Power meter, it’s my next sport gadget purchase

An F3 or 735XT most probably.
Probably a Fenix 3 since my Fenix 2 decided to commit suicide
A Fenix 3 HR or a power meter would be nice.
Age sees me turning to triathlon to preserve the knees longer :-)
So a Tri based watch would be good.
Smart trainer wahoo or tacx for the long months of zwifting in Edmonton
Garmin 735xt would be lovely. :)
Any chance I can save it for the Fenix 4/5!? If not I might consider finally taking the plunge on a power meter…
I get the new Garmin 735
I’ve got an old 800 and I’d like to update to something more recent. Or to help with my training, perhaps it’ll be a nice discount on a Kickr

I’d pick up a GoPro to chronicle all my running and OCR adventures. Just starting to get back in the swing of things after spending most of the year in a hospital room fighting leukemia.
Definitely one of the pedal based power meters so I can finally find out how little power I’m outputting!
I would like to cash the credit for Fenix 5 (hope to be available soon) as my 920 is not so fancy to be used as everyday watch, but F3 is not worth spending so much money, when I still have my 920 :)
A Power Meter is a long overdue gift under the tree!
I’d get a powermeter, stage or 4iiii!
Powertap P1 – I would like to add power to my road bike.
I want the Powertap P1 power meter because that fatso Santa told me to train with power but too stingy to give me one for free :)
I’m planning to get into tri this year, but Santa didn’t bring me a Garmin 735xt. Help, Ray!
need something to replace my aging garmin 910xt. so was hoping for a 520 and a 735 – and a scosche rhythm+ – even contacted clevertraining uk to hear when they get the scosche in stock again.
I need to replace my triathlon watch.
Fenix 3 HR for sure
Would probably get couple of Fitbit trackers to give away to family for the new year :)
A turbo trainer would be top of my list. I could still get my ‘rides’ in, even when the kids are off school.
I like the Vector2 powermeter… ???
I would go for the Garmin edge 820. The breadcrumb trail on my old edge 500 has led me astray in the more densely populated area that I just moved to.

One of the new yet to-be released Garmin watches!

Happy New Year to you and the family.
