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 Hero7 Black to a Fitbit Versa smartwatch to a random pair of socks to the Favero Assioma power meter, or heck, even towards a new trainer. Whatever floats your boat (note: they don’t sell boats or even other vessels like submarines).
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 Friday, December 28th, 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.

As I do not have a wider wrist to carry a 5 Plus, I think a Fenix 5S plus would be a wonderful watch to get.
Thank you for organising the giveaway.
A Cycliq Fly 6 so my wife may be able to catch my killer. And maybe a new Garmin Edge, my old 200 is getting a little long in the tooth.
A set of power meter pedals (would decide on which manufacturer after consulting DCR’s guide)
A Fenix for the wife!
I would choise a Pioneer Shimano Ultegra R8000 Crankset Power Meter because a want to upgrade from a leftside only to a dualsided system
So many choices, but I think I would go for a good action camera. Thanks for the giveaway!
Garmin vector pedals, bc I’ve made tremendous strides training with power on the wahoo kickr this offseason and want to continue utilizing power data when I hit the streets come spring and summer. I want the vector pedals in particular because I’m entrenched in the Garmin ecosystem and they will work best with my Campy groupset/cranks based on info I’ve gleamed from this website.
Definitely a new trainer! TBD which one would get the $500 chuck of payment applied!
I’d love a new Garmin, either a Forerunner 645 or a Fenix. Because a better watch can only help!

Power for the bike is high on the list.
A new Fenix with HR in the wrist. I have a older Fenix model at the moment but it doesn’t have built in HR so I have to also wear the Rhythm 24+ with it. It is nice but less is more. :)
Wahoo Kicker please!
Would love a Suunto 9 so I can record my ultras.
Hi Ray,

Suunto 9 Baro. It is the best there is in my opinion and my Garmin is very old

I would get some more cold weather clothing. It is going to be a long winter.
I’m just a poor boy I need no sympathy. I want a GoPro 7 Black to shoot some reality. So that I can easy come and easy go, little high little low and even if the wind blows it wouldn’t really mater to me.
I’d definitely get a crank-based power meter for cyclocross.
Need a new running watch. My old Garmin isn’t cutting it anymore. Currently using my wife’s forerunner 35

I’d get a GoPro or a bike light-camera combo!
I’d probably choose a sleeping bag, so I have somewhere to sleep when I’m on-call at the hospital!
kickr core for the quietness and direct drive.
An update for my F3HR!
I would have loved to have received the Garmin Fenix5, but we had too many other things on the list and it didn’t make the cut!
