What an incredible end to an insane month!
4 Hyrox Races, in less than 4 weeks, in 4 different countries resulting in 3 personal bests, two 3rd Place podium finishes & two more 4th place for Age!
28/09: Rome 57:54 (Doubles with Luke) 3rd
04/10: Hamburg 1:04:38 (Solo) 3rd
18/10: Valencia 1:04:54 (Solo) 4th
22/10: Birmingham 56:47 (Doubles with Vlad) Currently 4th.
I honestly don’t even know where to start with my reflections.
It’s been a crazy month. I’ve learned so much both about Hyrox as a race & competition but more importantly myself!
When I first signed up to 4 in 4, I didn’t really think it would be that hard but I under-estimated the challenge.
Physically it was difficult but mentally and emotionally it was even harder due to the travel, lack of sleep, lack of routine, poor recovery, limited training & increased expectations I placed on myself.
Having said that, I loved it all.
Every race offered completely different experiences.
Unique challenges!
New lessons to learn!
I love Hyrox for many reasons.
Firstly, I love competing in something I’m good at.
I love challenging myself both physically & mentally.
I love dissecting the race. Understanding the tactics, techniques, rules, strategy & pacing!
I love the training. I love the community.
I love how I can test all the above, not only against the general masses, but also against people in my own age division.
I love seeing others, both friends & strangers, succeed in the sport in so many varied & unique ways.
And I love passing on my passion, experience, mindset & knowledge to other people.
After winning Cape Town for Age back in July in a 5-minute PB time of 1:05:19 I decided to solely focus my training for Hyrox competitions to see what I’m capable of.
So far so good! But hopefully I’m just getting started.
Now its time to rest up & then get back to training to see what next year brings.
Shout out to @vlad.mateei & @lukiedamen the 2 best doubles partners I could wish for!
