It’s that time of year again. Ahh yes, Halloween you’re thinking. But nope – that’s not what I’m talking about. Rather, it’s fall. And historically, fall has meant the arrival of new GoPro editions. So for this month’s giveaway (ok, it’s been a few months), I’m giving away a new GoPro Hero5! Yup, the one just released a few weeks ago.
Which version you ask? If you want the Hero5 Black, it’s all yours. Or if you prefer things of cube-like shape. Then go forth on the Hero5 Session. Either way, the winner selects their preference. See – I’m all about giving you choice. Unless it involves a Karma drone, then you’ve got no choice (or chance) there. Nobody does. Maybe next month, there’s always a next month, right?
Don’t worry, entry is easy as always. Just answer the below question in the comments section and you’re off to the races. Simple!
To Enter: What’s on the docket this weekend from an athletic/training standpoint?
Yup, it’s that easy! And yes, you can enter no matter where you live. Guadalupe, Ghana, or Georgia – all are OK by me!

Nothing! Need a break. Hot tub time. ALL weekend.
Swim, bike, run, and eat my way through the second weekend of my taper for IM Florida!! ?
A birthday bicycle ride with my brother.
Some trainerroad rides and an outside run :)

MTB season ended, time for some trail running on Saturday
Think it’s time to set the turbo up indoors and spend an hour trying to get used to the mind-crushing boredom of it all…
Training… Saturday almost always involves the week’s “long run”. Given no specific upcoming race it will probably aim to be ~10 miles or so.
I’d also love to get on the bike at some point for a minimum of an hour. I seem to be a mostly indoor rider now anyway, but with winter coming in MN I may try to squeeze in something outside.
Well, tomorrow I have a group ride to a bakery (80k) and on sunday I am going for a 10k run. Oh and right now I am preparing for a little wellness in the sauna – I mean it’s off-season, so this will be enough from athletic standpoint for today.
This weekend is rest and recovery before starting a new 12 week training program Monday.
Some ridge running, hopefully!
Going out on a couple of short runs.
The usual Saturday long bike ride :)
Mountainbike weekend!
Long ride, then another long ride
Will be running 30k this afternoon (maybe 10k more if the weather holds).
Thanks Ray for all the goodies!
Trail riding on the mtb :)
I’m still resting from the big race last weekend- hence I’ll likely do some impromptu easy run/ride with friends!
Doing some serious hiking in Allgäu as a practice for climbing Mount Kinabalu on the island of Borneo at the end of November this year…

I’m going for a 30km trail run on Monte Canto.
Get in another ride two before the weather goes south
Long run on Saturday, then a Cyclocross race on Sunday….yeeehaw

Swim, swim and swim again!
A few five mile runs out in the rain, it looks like.

I will be supporting my friends during their race, which I unfortunately must skip because of an injury.

Indoor trainer for me.
Hi Ray,
Thank you for the great contest, I am actually very interested in a Hero5..
All weeknd training plans have not been defined, but Saturday and Sunday afternoon I will do some indoor climbing with my daughter..
Larping this weekend
This weekend is a trip to the Penrose Park Velodrome (aka Mr. Bumpyface) in St. Louis for a test lap. I registered for the 100 Miles of Nowhere charity ride they put on over at FatCyclist.com. My tentative plan was to do it at the Velodrome, but I have a couple of concerns. First the nickname (what I’m going to check out this weekend), and second it’s not in the greatest neighborhood (guess also what I’ll be checking this weekend).
Other than that, I’ll be checking to see where some friends are planning on riding and maybe join them.
Run Saturday, Swim Sunday
Spin up through the Perth hills if the rain hold off. Still awaiting the Australian spring.

Run on Saturday and Soccer game on Sunday.
Coming back from health challenges I am building a new base and the forecast for rain all this week puts me on the trainer and then the gym for the treadmill.
A medium pace run and a bike around the lake with the kids.
I’m tapering for a race on 11/5 so my weekend training will just be a 10m trail run on Saturday and about 5m on Sunday. Thanks for the giveaway Ray!
In the Czech Republic we have really cool autumn. This is time to take a bike and enjoy ride in the mountains. Outdoor gives more and what I love about the doing exercises outside is that you can get dirty. I will definitely go to muddy terrain. Oh yeah, Halloween. This is connected with night hiking on the top of the highest peak of Beskydy mountains, I cannot wait.
Pedal, pedal, mash them until I’m soft …
Cross !!
Hiking in the wilds of MN with some buddies (and their dogs).
