“It’s about finding that one thing in life that sets you free.” – Chasing Mavericks
++Note: This contest is now closed ++
There’s a new Gerard Butler movie coming out this Friday and it’s about going beyond the realm of the possible.
You know how I like to be inspired and so you must know how much that line inspires me (in fact I believe triathlon is one of those things for me.)
In “Chasing Mavericks,” which is based on a true story, that thing is surfing. (Combine for me a good surfing movie, Gerard Butler and some inspiration set to the soundtrack of “Here Comes a Fighter” and you have a winner according to me.)
Chasing Mavericks is the inspiring true story of a 15-year-old surfing phenom Jay Moriarty who finds out a mythic surf break is actually near his California home and he enlists a surfing legend to help him train for the big show. Of course, along the way, it becomes bigger than the quest for the survival of the wave. (It always does.)
Starring Gerard Butler, Jonny Westin, Elizabeth Shue, and Abigail Spencer, Chasing Mavericks is rated PG and comes out October 26th and I’m giving away a Chasing Mavericks prize packs which includes a chance for you to see the movie yourself!
The prize pack includes a:
· $25 Visa Gift Card for a day at the movies!
· Copy of the official Chasing Mavericks Soundtrack
· Copy of the book Chasing Mavericks: The Movie Novelization
· Live Like Jay Bracelet
The value of the prize pack is $50.
All you have to do is answer the burning question: what is that one thing in life that sets you free? (Have you found it yet?)

You know when I was working, I thought life was hard and now that I can’t work, I miss it so much. I’m doing better with it now but I guess I cried almost every day for the first year and it’s going on 3 years and I’m still having a tough time. I like spending time with my grandchildren, my health don’t allow me to do very much. I use to travel a lot and can’t do that now either.
