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.

Power meter for smart training
I’d love a power meter! I’ve just got a new Edge 520 and it’s begging for a power meter companion, like, say, a PowerTap C1?
I’d try my hardest to hold on for the rumored fenix 5 – love my 3, but I’m a gadget geek!
I am thinking either at the F3 HR or some powermeter, mainly because I am pissed off that the 920XT does not get updates as frequently as the F3 :)

I would definitely get the PowerTap C1 power meter. Having ridden inside on trainer road for a couple of years I’ve come to appreciate the consistency of training with the power meter… but I still don’t have any
I think it is time to upgrade my Garmin gear, my Edge 510 and Forerunner 230 are good, but with some big triathlons coming in 2017 I need more feedback on my cycling, and swim mode on my watch.
Without hesitation a Garmin Fenix 3 HR, a long time i would like to purchase one …
I’m going to get the new Garmin Edge 1010 or whatever it’s called because even though I don’t know anything about it and regardless of what Ray says about it good or bad it’s a new gadget and I must have it and I’m going to get it because I can’t resist because I love new things and especially I love new electronics is that enough words now?

Garmin 920 for sup 9 hours in Roth next year ;)
I’d definitely get a power meter, most likely a pedal-based one (garmin vector, probably) as I’m trying to structure my training sessions. It really feels a power meter would improve my game.
Garmin 735, just upgraded my gadgets with an Edge 810, it’d be a nice match. All the best for 2017!
Garmin forerunner 35 in order to record my run on strava
Somehow all I got for Christmas was boredom!
I’d use the comparison tool to buy a GPS to use on my bike…
