I Did HYROX (Twice!)
In 2024, I entered HYROX solo with exactly zero preparation. It went about as well as you’d expect. By the fourth run I knew I was in deep trouble, and unfortunately I was right. To be fair, I’d signed up knowing full well it clashed with the footy finals. I was 99.99% sure I wouldn’t even get to the start line. But when the season turned out better than expected and we had HYROX weekend off…well, suddenly I was in. Sadly, “no prep” wasn’t exactly the smartest race plan, and the event went exactly the way “no prep” events usually do.
