Team Polar

I received an interesting offer from active.com. Between now and January 5, 2007, you can register to become part of Team Polar. They are looking for 100 triathletes, runners or cyclists with at least 6 events scheduled in the next year. Some great heart rate monitors and other gear will be provided to the chosen atheletes. Makes me almost regret that competitive fitness is not for me. I love my Polar Heart rate monitor.

Here is the recruitment pitch:

Are you a triathlete, runner or cyclist with at least six events on your schedule for 2007? Have you experienced first hand the benefits of heart rate based training? Are you technology savvy and comfortable speaking with others about products you can stand behind? If so, Polar wants you!

Since introducing the first wireless heart rate monitor back in 1977, Polar has become the number one choice among consumers, coaches and personal trainers worldwide. Polar is committed to not only producing the best products, but also to being the leading educator on the benefits of heart rate based exercise. In 2007, the company is looking to sponsor 100 athletes who will train and race in branded apparel and assist Polar with their education initiatives by demonstrating to the marketplace the benefits of training with heart rate monitors.

If you are chosen you get:

• A FREE RS400sd running computer ($349.95 retail value)
• A FREE RS200sd running computer ($239.95 retail value) or CS200cad cycling computer ($179.95)
• Cash payments for generating media exposure for Polar and assisting with retail events in your area
• Complimentary high end, sponsor-branded performance and training apparel
• Special product offers, discounts, new product testing and more

Polar Wants:

• Athletes who are passionate about Polar and heart rate based training
• Brand ambassadors who enjoy educating others on products that can help athletes reach the next level in their training
• Outgoing individuals who will strive to positively promote Polar to the media, peers, family and friends.

If this sounds like you, between now and January 5 you can register here. Good luck.
