Hi everyone, I wanted to share a short reflection after racing HYROX this past weekend, in case it’s useful for others going through a similar process. I returned to HYROX almost two years after my last race, coming off a not-so-fun period that included a complete ankle ligament rupture and a bone contusion. I only started running with minimal pain about four months ago, so at the beginning of the 12-week prep my expectations were… let’s say carefully optimistic. As the weeks went by, confidence slowly built and the idea of a PB stopped feeling crazy and started feeling possible. In the end, I took almost 4 minutes off my previous best and had one of the most controlled races I can remember. Apart from the first run — where adrenaline still convinces me I’m fitter than I really am — four of my run segments were identical to the second. The gap between my fastest and slowest was just 16 seconds, which for me felt like a small miracle. The workouts were solid, but also gave me a clear lesson. In a few stations I was probably too cautious. Lack of confidence and aggression meant I left some time on the table. Ironically, some of the workouts I thought were strengths ended up being weaker on race day — most likely because I’d got a bit too comfortable with them in training. A good reminder that comfort can quietly become complacency. What really stood out to me was how clean the overall strategy felt. The guidance and discussions within this community helped me race with much more clarity and intention. The programming made complete sense, the taper felt spot on, and I arrived on the start line full of energy and motivation — exactly how you want to feel. I’m now shifting focus into a longer development phase with the Hybrid Racer Program and aiming toward a race in July. The goal is to keep building on this foundation, especially by improving execution and confidence within the workouts. Taking another few minutes off of PB might be to ambitious — but that’s part of the fun.

Yesterday we saw something unusual at the Friday night lights in Manchester. An elite 15 assembly to try and break a new mixed relay world. The record is just over 49mins, and the elite 15 team smashed a 46:43, a 3 mins new world record. WHAT THEY DIDNT EXPECT was that the British athlete Sinead wasn’t wearing her ankle chip 😫 Which disqualified the whole race. It was a true shame as they had a beautiful clean race. But rules are there to be followed. A rookie mistake that costed a lot for them. Is it only her fault or the whole team that didn’t double check?
