The race is the exact same. But the layout of courses may change a bit. And if it’s outside like NYC weather may play a factor. Plus who you are competing against changes.

Tbf Holly said she was aiming for 1:01 or 1:02, however this just shows how delusional they were to claim they were improving faster than any other hyrox athlete

I think Hyrox is a stupid made up sport but I guess people can do it if they want but to me it seems like one of those sports that's been made to sell a product rather than something that's organic.

What's fun about running is being outside, fresh air, seeing the scenery change and being out and about. Hyrox is in a big indoor arena mainly right? So that's the main appeal of running gone.

Similarly - the strength training stuff I enjoy is the progressive overload, seeing my numbers go up over time - other than that it's pretty boring.

Hyrox has none of the aspects I enjoy about either running or strength training so for me it is a pointless endeavour.

I think it also has limited commercial success in the sense that I'd assume, unless you compete in it, it's not a fun or entertaining thing to watch

i think she did very well, she's been training seriously just for the last 6 months and still qualified as 44th at her age group in the world championships, that's a massive success!
plus she said she didn't feel too good due to her period, which affects even professional athletes at the olympics, for example
she's too hard on herself!
