Today is Friday – you made it to the end of the week. But more importantly, today is also Australia Day. I only know that because I’m in Australia, and the beaches are more crowded than the starting line of a marathon (still, I pretended to workout and went for a short swim). Thus, it seems reason enough to give away some gadget goodness. But fear not, I won’t be restricting this to those in Australia, or any other country. Anyone, anywhere on earth, is welcome to join as always.
Somehow it’s been far too long since we’ve last done a giveaway. I seriously don’t know how, because I talk about it almost every month with the Clever Training crew, and then somehow it slips off my radar. Perhaps we just need more holidays to have faux reasons for me to give stuff away.
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 almost anything they sell (or get points instead). If you win, you can use that credit for anything from the GoPro Hero6 Black, to a Suunto Spartan Ultra, to a random pair of socks, to the Garmin Vector 3 power meter, or heck, even towards a new trainer. Whatever floats your boat (note: they don’t sell boats). Also note, your credit is in US dollars, not Australian – otherwise you’d get less. Nobody wants less.
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. F5), 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 Monday, January 29th, 2018 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.

I am looking to up my training and racing by getting a power meter. I’d love the Garmin Vector 3s pedals; easy to set up and switch between bikes, good value and the opportunity to upgrade to dual sided power in the future. Fingers crossed…
GoPro Hero6 Black… Because that is a lot of cash for a toy that won’t help me do much of anything faster or better… but it sure does make some shiny video clips.
I would use the credit to buy a FR935 (because they are so light weight and capable) or a Gopro 6 (upgrade from my Gopro 4 silver). Will Clever ever add DJI drones in their offer?
I’d like to buy the Garmin Forerunner 935. An upgrade will mean that I could run live Strava segments as I train for this year’s marathon.

Garmin Forerunner 935 Tri Bundle
Wouldn’t mind a new power meter either, or a GoPro, but at the moment definitely a Garmin Forerunner 935.
I would get the garmin fenix 5, probably the x variant or the garmin 935. I need to upgrade my old fenix 2 because the battery keeps dying on me during my 24 hrs shifts. And I need to have the blue tooth on to get notifications from important texts at work quickly without having to grab my phone.
The Vector 3 , what else!
I’d probably go for the Garmin 645.

A power meter!
I think I’d replace my “dumb” trainer with a “smart” one.
I’d definitely be putting it toward the new Fenix 5 HR (I know, I’ll have to pay the difference, but it would be totally worth it!). I love my Fenix 3 (original, no HR unfortunately), but having the color screen and other updates would be amazing!
Would love a go with the new Garmin Forerunner 645 – newest running watch iteration (I’m still on the 620) & the music bit might be interesting :-))
A smart trainer would make winter days more bearable
Probably a garmin watch. Upgrade is in order…

I’d love a new bar in watch for my wife. Like the Fenix 5 or forerunner 935 as she is doing IMTX for her bday
Forerunner 935…probably. Something more than how fast I’m going on my bike would be good.
I’d probably get the Garmin 645. Bringing music into my watch means one less thing to take with me on a run…. although I do love my old ipod shuffle.

I’d get a pedal based power meter. Maybe the Faveros.
Time to get serious and increase my efficiency.
