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!

Marine Corps Marathon!
This weekend I need to find a 2-3% grade incline that lasts a half-mile to start doing “accordion runs”, per my coach. Sounds like a fun workout: Up the hill at my 10K pace, back down to the start before I hit my target half-marathon mile pace time, start again at exactly the HM-mile-pace time. So I’ll be going up the hill at 7:10/mi (3:35), and then have just shy of four minutes to make it back to the start to go again at 7:30.
Lots of mountain biking!
End of season break. Cross “training” with some mountain biking on Saturday and hiking on Sunday.
Cycling hill training til exhaustion. Then cycle back home.
2 days – 3 ice hockey games – 3 wins – go for it!
