First off, no, I’m not giving away the Easter Bunny. That’d involve going to a nearby shopping mall and somehow kidnapping the poor guy as he gets photos taken with small children. And I’m pretty sure that’d be awkward for everyone involved.
Instead, I’ll be like an Easter Bunny – and some lucky duck (or bunny as it may be) will get their gadget wishes fulfilled. No searching for semi-rotten poorly water-colored eggs required.
The winner will get a $600 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. If you win, you can use that credit for anything from the new Garmin Fenix3 HR, to a Fitbit Blaze, a pair of Hawaiian themed underwear (yes, actually) to the WatTeam Power Meter, or heck, even towards a new trainer. Whatever floats your boat.
How to enter:
Simply leave a short description of what your training plans are for the weekend ahead – with or without the bunny. Note that eating chocolate eggs is totally valid nutrition.
The reason you need a short description of ‘what’ is that if you just put a simple one word answer (i.e.5k), 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, March 28th, 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.

If I’m lucky, I’ll manage a short run on Saturday and Sunday. Otherwise, it’s mostly about visiting the various parents and friends back home.
Saturday will be a lazy day since i’m driving to the French Alps, but sunday (and the rest of the week) will be a whole day of snowboarding 🙂

A couple of lazy centuries. Gotta hit those targets!
I am already in the countdown for the Marathon of Rome, on April 10th, so my weekend will consist of an easy run of a 5k and then 18k. Sunday it will be a rest day with some good chocolate. Happy Easter
My training plan for the weekend is: getting my first proper long run in after my half marathon two weeks ago, and eating tons of eggs, both of the chocolate (valid nutrition) and of the chicken (valid protein?) variety!
Some time on the trainer as well as a 5k run on Saturday.
100km ride on Sunday and at least 70km ride on Monday in preparation for a cycling weekend in Italy

Hi Ray
I’m only two weeks post marathon so my 4-day weekend will be filled with moderate runs – nothing quick, nothing too long – 12km, 16km, 12km, 16km….
Nathan
As usual, running low HR 1:30 on Saturday, cycling 100k+ with the guys on Sunday, nothing on Monday. All West of Paris. And you’re welcome to join.
A couple of 10ks over the weekend for me.

Run a Marathon distance to a mitic Church in Lanzarote. La ermita de los DOLORES.
Going to Mallorca on Saturday for a week of cycling
Unfortunately, I am working these days, but I will definitely ride next week, as I will be free! 😉
Running once leisurely on Good Friday and then an interval workout on Sunday – 40 x 120m, starting every minute. It’s a tough one.
No training plans unfortunately as I broke my little toe exactly 1 week ago on a run. 2 weeks is fine for bone healing right?
Simple answer for me, I’ve got a packed weekend of Canicross racing all 4 days at a season finale event. [Canicross is cross country running with your dog (mine’s a Siberian Husky) in a harness attached to you via a shock line so that you go even quicker – well that’s the plan anyway…. until your dog decides to go in a vastly different direction to chase rabbits etc.]
20 miles this morning (Friday) before my wife heads off for the weekend leving me with baby. There will then be some buggy running and core training, until she is back Monday, when I have a 10k. Happy days.
My training this weekend will be chocolate carb loading, then:
riding every nasty hill I can find at our holiday house, then a couple of flat rides into and out of headwinds.
Towing my unfit ass up some hills in the Peak District.
Just one easy run on Sunday. I felt my knee last week so i try to take it easy.
I’ll be doing parkrun on Saturday then heading out for about 10 miles on Sunday – my last long run before the Paris marathon next weekend!
I’ll do some short and easy run 10 or 12 km (I did more demanding runs earlier). Weekend as usual, maybe I’ll sleep more for a change!
I’m planning a 60K ride on sunday, but I need to be back before the easter lunch 🙁
Planning on a short easy run on Saturday followed by an easter egg scuba dive on Sunday and a interval training run on Monday…
The plan is to run a slow short recovery run on Saturday followed by a quick interval training or chasing the easter bunny on Sunday.
Helping kids eating their Easter chocolate “things”… Then burning those generous calories while running 15 km in level 2.
8 miles on Sunday if my ankle is not still swollen !
4×4 intervals 🙂
70km MTB on the great lake trail in Taupo New Zealand… Stunning piece of the world
FTP Test on the bike on Saturday, then a run (maybe another FTP test, eugh) on Sunday…
A short ride to maintain muscle tension and use an extensive Easter breakfast with good friends to prepare for Monday’s criterium race!
Running the world half marathon Champs mass event, then time trialing Sunday, both in the rain. Then eating my own bodyweight in chocolate eggs.
Happy Easter!
If the weather cooperate I will be able to ride outside in the fresh Canadian air, if not back to the pain cave with 2 Pretzel loop on Watopia…
40+ minutes on the stepper with min. 90 repetitions per day (sounds like running?), as well as 2-3 hours walks. I’m just starting getting serious about sports, fitness and such.
50-75Km training ride to prepare for a 200Km (˜3000m climbing) in June.
I’ll be doing my last couple of long runs before my marathon in 2 weeks
I am going to practice back country skiing. The “Patrouille des Glaciers” is less than a month away 🙂
5k run and maybe a dip in the pool if I get round to it!
At 7 months pregnant my training has slowed down but I’ve got a 12 k run on deck – last hurrah race next weekend. Good luck to the Girl on her pregnancy!
Eun a 3 day trail in the moroccan desert and mountains
Making up for lost time on Strava’s monthly mileage challenge. Silly rain.

Cross train on Saturday, and a 3mi Easter run!
A short run on the treadmill.
1,5 hour mountain biking, 1 hour running
Easy ride on the fixed gear in the sun today while its still here. Then a wet run latter in the weekend.
190km ride on Saturday and then rise again with a 30km run on Monday.
My goal is to get back on my bike after 2,5 months of staying in hospital. I will probably start with a 25 – 30 km on saturday morning and a 40 km ride on sunday.

Going to buy a new bike!
Longer runs combined with some strenght training!

Taking part in my 137th Parkrun on Saturday and a nice bike ride on Sunday.
Heading out shortly for a 15 mile bike ride with my son then I’ll do similar on my own. Longer ride (about 50 miles) with friends on Sunday and some MTB fun on the trails on Monday ?
Big weekend of running for me. Lots of spring trail time in the arboretum and Jura.
Short run is all I may be able to this weekend.
No plans, cause I am ill ;-(
Going on a 4 days ski WE in Utah, should make an excellent lower body workout.
For me it starts with a 100km bike ride supporting a mate training for Ironman and finishing with a half marathon in preperation for a marathon in 2 weeks. Between that is lots of chocolate bunnies and eggs and maybe some other sessions.
A bit of recovery today to get a sense if flu is really hitting or not — and then a short pace run and on another day a longer steady 20k or so. Cycling season also starts soon, as snow and ice melt away, and the spring dust vanishes from main roads.
My Goal is to make the Critical Power Test with my brand new Stryd.
And after it. I Hope to make one or two running units for testing the power measurement of the Stryd.
I think the units are 10 km.
But the hardest training will be the birthday party of my daughter (17 years) from the 27th to the 28th of march.
🙂
I will do some running and if the weather allows also some cycling.
Long run on Saturday; long bike on Sunday.
I’ m in! 2x 8km run and a 90km MTB tour in the Netherlands. Sportful long weekend
