Ironman Talk competition!

We had a great pair of Oakley transition sunglasses that Rolland sent through for us to review. We decided that we would have a competition to give them away. So here\u2019s what you need to do: Create an ad for Ironman Talk, around 30secs to a couple mins long, put it on YouTube.com and then link to it on Athlinks. We\u2019ll pick three finalist and then we can all have a vote for the winner. Entries close at the end of August. It\u2019s time to create!
