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.

I achieved my weekend goals with a much needed iron session at the gym Saturday morning, and nice 20 mile bike ride in the evening. Then, Sunday was a relaxing rest day with lots of delicious food!

Final runs before my first trail half marathon.
Thrashing away on TrainerRoad.
A back to work post spring-break: 5 mile tempo run, (2) days of speed, (4) days of soccer practice- coaching….Yeah and we might get to do it all in snow, sun, wind, sleet and rain here in Colorado
My goal this week is to re-take my marathon training after a month without any exercise because of a radial head fracture on my right arm 🙁
À Nice three hoor bikeride, hopefully in the sun!
I have to admit I ate a lot of chocolate yesterday (and today too) therefore I have to go out for looooong run !
Run a trail 10k this weekend, hopefully. Or sleep.
What I did this weekend was The Last X-Country skiing of 2016 season! Great 50k of slow and sunny skiing!
I biked 55 miles on Sat and ran 14 miles on Sunday. Sunday night was painful to say the least!
Plans are (now were) for an easy long run on Saturday followed by an easier, but less long, run on Sunday. And a few miles this morning. Plan accomplished.
I tried to avoid the rain. I was mostly unsuccessful I might add.
Get at least one good run in and otherwise carbo-load to get back to it next week.
A long run. As the spring half-marathon in Bonn (Germany) is coming closer.
I have done trail running, up and down hills.
Had a casual stroller run with baby and dog
Since I’m a little late on this, I went on a long bike ride, a short run, and took care of my weekly meal prep this past weekend!

Swam for an hour; Skipped Sunday long ride. Trainer session and some strength workout on Monday night.
Regular Saturday morning social run from the coffee shop, followed by house cleaning and a Sufferfest workout on the trainer. Sunday saw oodles of kid stuff and other family-related adventures, capped off by 30 minutes on the row machine and Daredevil on Netflix.
Maybe the first bike ride of the season…
10k run only. Coming back from injuries?
MOUNTAIN BIKING! YAY SPRING!

Had 2 not too hard sessions of cycling. It felt like a real spring for the first time this year. 🙂
I just finished a 21mi long run in preparation of my marathon on May 1st
Starting to rest up for a 100km hike in two weeks. Need to be rested and full of chocolate energy.
Recovering from injury (so, lying on the couch drinking beer)
I plan to swim, eat chocolate, and scavenge for Easter eggs.
After coming back from an injury I’ll be attempting a 10 miler. Just in time for a half marathon 2 weeks after that.
Family time, with a short run to finish things off.
I had a 5-mile run on the schedule, and I wanted to do a bike workout. Did the run, skipped the bike in favor of mowing the lawn (lots of rain means lots of grass).
Bike ride 100km and 10K run, thanks
Saturday – 4:15 on bike trainer. Sunday – 2:15 run … oops, didn’t make it. Knocked it out on Monday AM.

Run through the beautiful landscape of La Provence.
I’m going for 15 k run this sunday.
I was supposed to do a lot more than I did. Ended up riding from London to Brighton (82km), a short run and 6km spread over 2 swims.
Still recovering from a half marathon in which I was woefully undercooked training wise. Just a few strolls around the park this weekend!
training for Ironman Brazil, 200k bike + 10k run on saturday and 30k run on sunday
Since the weekend has already passed, this coming up weekend, I will be exercising my legs chasing around my children. Hopefully I’ll be able to get around to a nice long bike ride soon.
I’m definitely in the need of upping my running days. So I’m aiming for a couple of miles at least 5/6 days out of the week. And continuing taking yoga classes 3 times a week 🙂
Hmmmm ….. not much regarding training plans, mostly recovering from jetlag and post-vacation blues.
Riding a TrainerRoad training and a short, sunny run

Clearly eating eggs & Hot Cross Buns would be the priority, but I am also out for a 10km run, 40km bike and am hoping to slip in a swim!
Just eating easter eggs, tomorrow’s another day!
Weekends plan was a couple of hours Saturday then 60-80 miles today.
Reality:
Sat – windy and rainy but did an hour hills reps.

Today – gardening, re-sealing bathtub, walk dog then 1 hour hills again.
At least it partly offsets the chocolate!!!
