Hyrox Boston - Open Women’s Singles - 1:20:11💜

Went into this race with little to no expectations, not because I didn’t want to chase a goal, but because the last two months have challenged me mentally and physically in ways I’ve never been before, and not the good kind. I really didn’t know what I was capable of after all of that.

Because the athlete in me needs some sort of time goal, my biggest goal was 1:20, and just 11 seconds away from that, I can say I’m proud. To finish first in my heat, made me even more excited. I’d be lying if I said this wasn’t a win I truly needed in this season of life, not to show myself my physical capability, but my mental. To show myself that life really is a rollercoaster, and even when you feel like life’s getting heavier with each day, at some point, it’s got to come up, and that’s what this day showed me.

Just your reminder that social media is a highlight reel, and that everyone goes through something at some point, so be kind and spread love wherever you go. Then maybe sign up for a Hyrox to remind yourself who the FRICKKK you are😈

@hyroxworld you are a blessing, and have created such an inspiring and incredible community.

@hausxfitness as always prepping all of us to be ready for race day✨🫶🏻

Vancouver & Nashville in sight, back to the pain cave we go…..

Hyrox Boston Venue Map Breakdown!📍🏃‍♂️🫡

⭐️Athlete registration same place as race
⭐️On the 2nd time you see IN you go IN (for ALL runs)
⭐️The black sections on the map are where spectators can watch you race!

This is a very SIMPLE course to follow again, you see “in” gate ONCE, you see “in” gate TWICE, you go IN!! Even after the redbull tunnel AND for wall balls!

Can’t wait to see everyone compete✨

Hyrox DC✨

WEEKS later finally posting about it. I honestly debated posting about it at all just due to the fact that this race ended up being so much more than a race for me.

Coming off of a really challenging 6 weeks where I was mentally and physically exhausted. I was burnt out, dealing with anxiety out of no where, lack of confidence building up, and it was just a spiral effect when I started to have physical symptoms of it all too. I felt like my mind and body were working against each other so training didn’t look optimal, but felt like the one thing I had control of when everything else seemed to be going haywire.

Even with a little trip to urgent care, I felt like I could still go into that race strong. But I couldn’t and I didn’t. The mental and physical exhaustion was still there and when the race ended, it felt like one more thing that defeated me that month, one more thing I wasn’t good enough at, and just showed me how much your mental state can effect you even when you think, no not me.

@_nicksherer_ was my knight in shining armor that day and every day for that matter.

Coming out of that race, I knew I needed to take a step back in order to move forward. That meant rest and recovery first, everything else after. Which if you know me, is quite challenging hehe. Nonetheless we have spent the last few weeks trying to do just that. We’re looking up but definitely not done. And to every person who has given me some extra love these last couple weeks, thank you🫶🏻

Boston in roughly two weeks, going in with mixed emotions, but with one focus, to just have fun. No time to chase, no time to beat, just simply proving to myself that it can get better, and that it will.

That’s my little life story hehe, pls take care of yourself always. Here’s your reminder to take a breathe and do something that makes you feel good today😊🫶🏻✨
