A HYROX SIM was held in August 2026 at the Dick's House Of Sport in Victor, NY.

It was organized and run by FlowerCity CrossFit, a proud HYROX affiliate.

Over 80 athletes participated, dozens of volunteers gave there time, and the coaches of FlowerCity CrossFit got to do what they do best... Help people be the best version of themselves.

This was a phenomenal learning opportunity for athletes and coaches alike to practice and improve there skills as well as bond with like minded individuals. It was an absolute privilege for me to be apart of this amazing event as a coach and event organizer. Hungry for more!

|2025 Hyrox Dallas: Race II // Pro Doubles|

Bumping shoulders with the big dawgs is kind of our thing.

@sam_the_man_114 has been killing it on the Open Men’s circuit so far this season while I have been eating like a monster and decreasing mileage after NYC 26.2 to avoid being a victim of a shoulder check [still happened but didn’t budge me much, nice try ;) you know who you are].

A lot of people ask how a New Yorker and Coloradan with minimal pro racing experience came together. The truth is, it all started with friendly trash talk on the track about who is a faster runner [me] and materialized at an AirBnB while racing Hyrox Miami. Ideally, it would have been nice to train for at least 1 hour together before throwing around heavy weights…psssshhh, we don’t operate on ideals.

First 1000m run felt slow but we came 2nd into the ski erg which was last place according to the game plan. Maintained it to the sleds where we were strong but just not as fast as the bigger competition. Strategically played back and forth with the rest of the field after the sled pull/rower using the runs as a way to stay in the thick of it. We know where to get better and that’s the best part.

A 56:05 as our first pro race together in a field including the Elites @huntthesheriff , @thehybridraccoon , & @jack.d_fitness proves 2 things: we are not where we want to be but we belong on that start line 😤

Chip Time: 56:05
Overall: 14th/348 [including elite teams, combined division]
AG: 9th/110 [8th-9th separated by 9 sec]

The Takeover Part 2:

Sam the Man. 💪
This past weekend in Toronto, he brought home his second career white flag 🥇 — proving once again what hard work and preparation can deliver.

But Sam didn’t just prepare himself. For months, he also programmed and coached the entire Flower City CrossFit Toronto roster, guiding them toward their own HYROX success. That balance of athlete and coach is what makes his dedication so inspiring.

Official Time: 1:00:39
Overall: 2nd of 1,784
Age Group (25–29): 1st 🥇

Congratulations, Sam — leading from the front, and showing what’s possible!

FOREMOST... I am truly grateful beyond measure for the people, resources, and opportunities in my life of which I am blessed with.

SECOND... You can see the sincere underlying frustration in my face in the last picture. As athletes, we are never satisfied. No matter how much time, effort, and sacrifice we put in. It's what keeps us going. Certain uncontrollables and unforseen factors were handed to me at this event. I truly believe I did the best I could with the mistakes I made and cards I was dealt. I played my hand and learned a thousand lessons. It's important that I stay mindful this was only my second official HYROX, my first ever race with PRO weights, and I had the privilege to do it at the highest stage this sport has to offer... World Championships! 🌎

THIRD... Thank you to everyone involved in my fitness journey, both directly and indirectly. Genuinely, thank you! Special shout-out to
Coach Sam Colliss @flowercitycrossfit
and JC @_jcreate_
for their support, energy, wisdom, and great vibes both at and leading into Worlds 🙌
