While meticulously lining up the above action cameras for some underwater tests this week I realized that somehow I missed April on the giveaway plan. I’ll blame the stingray for that, as clearly there’s no other explanation. But don’t worry, I won’t forget June…after all, we all know what happens in June! And with a massive ton of hot new gadgets on the market, I promise it’ll be EPIC!
And while it’s not technically May Day anymore, it is a day in May, thus one could technically still call this a May Day Giveaway (and I am). But no matter what I call it – it’s still a giveaway, and that’s what counts!
So in order to get folks all spring’d up, it’s time to give some stuff away! In this case, that’d be a $400 credit to Clever Training. Which, is enough to cover any of the action cams above (including the GoPro that I took the photo with) – or, any other gadget they sell, like a new Garmin, Suunto or Polar unit. Or you can use the credit towards a trainer or power meter. Your choice.
To enter yourself in, simply leave a comment below with the following:
To Enter: Tell me your next planned race (location/rough date) and the goal for the race. If you don’t have any planned races this year, then let’s go with the last race you competed and how it went.
Got it? Go forth!

For devices/gadgets/gizmos over $400, the winner can pay the difference.

My last race is more interesting then my next. It was the Old Pueblo 50 mi endurance run. Winds were 30-40mph, it rained over 2 inches. Temps in the 40’s. Trail turned to mud, then became a creek. I was woefully underdressed. DNFed after 33mi due to hypothermia.
How nice, just about the price of a V800 and my last watch just died. The timing would be most excellent!
By the way, I love the blog… being a geek myself. Though you seem to have more toys.
My last race was the North Face Endurance Challenge New York Half Marathon, which was my first trail race. It was, by all accounts, a brutal course and a blast. My next races will be a local (Brooklyn) 5K series. And I think that will probably be the extent of my racing this summer.
Spartan Sprint in Tuxedo Park NY. Goal is to finish beating my previous time of 2:20 (which I did at Mt. Killington, VT last year). My next event is the Peachtree 10k in Atlanta on July 4th. My goal for Peachtree 10k is to beat my previous PR of 57:50 in the 10k. And then I really start to train for the Chicago Marathon in October. My goal for that is simply to finish. But I would like to beat 4:30:00.
If I win I will use the camera/device in my training and report back on its usage!
Next race is a nice, easy 5 miler in Germantown, MD. Looking for a time less than 50 minutes.
Last big race was the Army 10 miler last October. Ran the last three miles with an asthma attack, but was NOT going to leave without the finisher coin.
Nyc marathon. Goal: have fun and under 4 hours
My next race is on May 17th – Ironman Texas! (in The Woodlands, Texas). Since this is my first full distance Ironman event, my goal time is 13 hours.
I’ll be running the Minneapolis Marathon on 6/1/2014 and coming in top 100 would be pretty cool. Some new gear for the race will be nice!
Tomorrow, 6km in the forest in the north of France (orienteering)
My next race is the Leadville 100 MTB race on August 9th! Hoping for a sub 9 hour race…and the BIG buckle!!!
My next race is the Washington Olympic tri in Washington, NC at the end of June. I’m looking for a good swim there. I’ve been working on my swim a lot.
I am racing Escape from Alcatrez on June 1. I used your race report as a guide, thanks! Goal time of 2:30.

My firest Triathlon is Deer Creek Olympic Triathlon on June 1st!Trying for about 3:00.
I never one a lucky draw in my life, but well….
Next race: My first Hallfmarathon as part of the Penang Bridge Maraton in Penang, Malaysia. Still way to go, the race is in November, goal is survival and a time close to 2h 15min is sadly what I would currently aim at. But who knows, maybe I am much faster by then. 😉
The next event coming up is traveling to Swaziland and helping out a small village, I have decided to step away from racing this year to help out. Before that I raced in Oceanside, CA. The race went well until my legs seized up on the run. Even though I worked through the cramps I was still able to manage a PR!
Next race is a mountain bike race called Bump and Grind. I hope to not come in last place since it is my second race as a cat 1.
Hi Ray,
Tomorrow, I ride the shark-Attack in Saalhauzen Germany, first a 270 km cardrive, then the marathon: 110 km 3200 HM, the weather is really bad… Rain mud cold windy…… Brrrrr , afterwards (approx 6hours) eat!!!!!, than 270 km back…

Ciao!
Starting to wind down my racing season but have a fun 10k coming up next weekend! Not really sure if I’ll “race” vs. “run” it but hoping to do 49:00ish or less.
LA Tri Series Event #2 – May 10 in San Dimas, CA. My goal is to finish top 10 in the series for my AG so likely means I need to make top 10 at the second of 3 events in the series since most the guys ahead of me at event #1 will be doing all three.
May 17, Got the Nerve tri in Mount Gretna! My goal is to have my best swim time yet (5th year doing the race).

Last race was the Sole of the City 10K in Baltimore on April 12th.
It was my first 10K race and I’ve only recently started running again after high school so I was pleased with my time of 46:07.6.

Doping my first off-road duathlon tomorrow (or any -athlon for that matter). Should be a pretty muddy affair:)
Hi Ray, great blog,

Cheers,
Ilan
Was signed up for the fellsman, but tore my calf muscle the week before – R&R for 4 weeks. Next race is hopefully the Herefordshire ultra – target: completion!
Race season on hold pending recover from ITBS. But had some great early season surfing this year down in the south west of England.

5 k next weekend for girls at the school I teach at; goal to finish the race with some of my students.
Ran the local St. Patrick’s Day 5k with the goal of finishing. Finished in the top half and wanting to improve in my next 5k.
My next event is actually in less than 10h from now. In France. 27kms trail in the surrounding of Poitiers area. In the wine yard. Not too much of ascent/descent this is far from being mountain here. Still 27kms is a bit for me so I am hoping to make it in around 10km/h, so I hope less than 3h.
Tomorrow, Accreo Ekiden in Warsaw, Poland. My goal is sub 48:30 on 10k leg.

It takes a while until my next race: 22 june, trailrunning 26km, Veluwezoomtrail. Which is agood thing: lower back pain followed by a good pulmonary tract infection = totally out of shape. So I will need the time.

Costa Rica, Central America, Villa Colón
75km hard climbs and technical roads!
Currently training to do my first MTB race in years. Goal is not to embarrass myself.

Season has just finished in Australia and my last race was the Xterra in Jevis Bay south of Sydney. Was a great race and had an awesome time 🙂
Having trouble sorting through the choices for the upcoming season, but ran Calgary Police Half-marathon two weeks ago. LIttle run training, but tons of biking over the winter/spring, and very pleased with the result. Second fastest time for the distance!

I couldn’t race Columbia, So I’m doing Rock Hall International on May 31st. Goal: Break 2:05 and maybe an overall podium.
June 15th, Challenge Kraichgau, first 70.3 ever so no specific goal…
The last race I completed was the Psycho Wyco Trail Run here in Kansas City, KS. I was able to complete the 10mi route, and it was without a doubt, the toughest run I have ever competed in. Winter brings all kinds of risks in this area, and this one brought cold and *light* snow that would not pack; effectively meaning your shoes turned into snow shovels through the trails. I know a couple guys that ran the full 50K route and took them over *9 hours* because of the conditions. Crazy, but so glad to have gone through it. Personally, I was struggle with some ITBS issues and ended up running/walking through it and *not* running for the next two weeks. Working toward a HM currently, but none selected yet.
Next (big) race is cairns 70.3, in just 4 weeks! I did the race last year as my first long course event and this year I am going back with the goal of finishing 30min quicker, aiming for a sub-4:42! I am fit enough, now I just need to put it all together on the day!
Bristol Harbourside Tri at the end of June, hopefully improve my bike time and be under the top 20.
My next race is my first Ironman, Ironman Austria, at the end of June. My goal is to finish, hopefully during daylight hours.

I’m aiming for a half marathon in September or October. Goal is to just train and finish the race without injury!

The Grafman middle distance in the Uk on June 8. Aim is to go a bit quicker than I was going this time last year.
I don’t race but I try and do my 80 km 4th st Caltrain to Tiburon cycle a bit faster every week.
SoCal Ragnar Relay a month ago. I was responsible for 25.9 out of 194 miles and I was quite happy that I beat my 10K pace, especially since I’ve never ran more than a 10K before. Overall my team came in 100th and had one hell of a time.
My last race was a 5k in Ghent, Belgium as I’m slowly hitting the road again after an injury has been bugging me for the last few weeks

Next Race is Heartbreak Hill Half Marathon, Port Elizabeth, 21 June 2014, Goal is to get in under 2:00hrs but it is a tough one! It is not called Heartbreak Hill for nothing.

Short rainy race with the kids.
Speaking of Clever Training, I just ordered an Ambit from them (my Garmin FR210 is garbage!) but they emailed the day after I placed the order and told me that they were out of stock and it would be a week or two before they got more from Suunto. Seems like they should have updated their website so that I could have known that before ordering. Haven’t made up my mind on them yet.
Death Ride is the big one I’m training for. Will probably have a couple century rides before then.
Doing the Wines2Whales MTb stage race in November in South Africa, looking to win our age group, place top 50 in GC, and race as hard as we can!
Noel

Haifa 10k Race which is today. Any sub 40m result would be great!
Next race for me is tomorrow: ECOMARATHON in Moeciu de sus (Romania). See http://www.ecomarathon.ro . It’s a mountain marathon: 42km and 2400m D+ and my goal is somewhere over 6 hours. With this, nice race WE to everyone!
