In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I chat with HYROX Co-Founder Mo Fuerste all about changes to the qualifying process for the Elite races in the 2024/25 HYROX season. We look at the Elite 15 Major races, including where they will be held and how to qualify for them, the Last Chance Qualifier (which gives everyone an opportunity to make their way into the Elite race at the World Championships, even if they haven’t raced in a Major), and what the changes in the process are versus the previous season. We also talk about the prize money that’s up for grabs, the live streaming and the expansion of the HYROX drug testing policy. If you are, in any way, either as a fan, or as an athlete, interested in the Elite side of HYROX, then this episode is a must listen so you can get the full lowdown on the whole process. 🏅 This episode is supported by MyProtein who sell a huge range of supplements, many of which are perfect for helping to support your training and racing in HYROX.

In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast we speak with Brakken Kraker (@brakkenkraker). You may have heard Brakken on the Race Brain podcast, or his Running Public podcast. He is a fantastic athlete who, amongst many other achievements – plenty of which we get to in this episode – has run a 51minute HYROX mens doubles (which he did along with Rich Ryan who has been on this podcast a couple of times). He’s also a very knowledgeable coach – especially on the running side - and in this episode we got a lot into the dos and do not's when running training for HYROX. It is a really enjoyable chat with a great guy, and there’s tonnes you’ll be able to take away from it. 🏅 This episode is supported by MyProtein who sell a huge range of supplements, many of which are perfect for helping to support your training and racing in HYROX.

| Gareth Timmins (The 0.1% Academy) - Peak Performance Mindset | 18 Jul 2024 | 00:49:20 | |
In this week's episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I'm chatting with Gareth Timmins (@garethtimminsauthor). Gareth is a HYROX athlete and an ex Royal Marine commando. He's been on the show previously when he spoke to us about his experiences in HYROX and his first book - “Becoming the 0.1%” - which was the diary account of the brutal training regime for Royal Marine selection. It was a hugely popular episode and I’m very excited to have him back on to talk about his new book – “The 0.1% academy” - which looks at how you can master the 7 mindsets to maintain peak performance. It shows you how you can perform better, for longer, while upholding your mental wellbeing. It is always a pleasure, and hugely inspiring, to chat with Gareth, and I think this episode, and the book, can be so beneficial for anyone interested in peak performance, mindset, mental health and lots more. 🏅 This episode is supported by MyProtein who sell a huge range of supplements, many of which are perfect for helping to support your training and racing in HYROX.

In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast, I get to chat with Meg Martin (@megsutherland) Meg recently became the HYROX Mixed Doubles world champion in her age group – along with her husband Will Martin – when they finished in a time of 54:58 in Nice. At the time that was only her second ever HYROX race. The day before we recorded this Meg also finished 2nd overall in the open in Melbourne. But not only is she an impressive athlete but at the age of 26 has already done so much. She’s set up run clubs, an apparel brand, coaching, shes done a Mega Goggins challenge, a 100 mile run, and lots more. We talk about all those things, her training, what shes been doing to improve her running so much since her first HYROX and lots more. It was a great chat with a fantastic person who is energising, inspiring and a savage of an athlete, who has her eyes set on the Elite 15, and I think you’ll really enjoy it. | |||

| Geordie Stewart (Winning HYROX London, Climbing Everest, and Riding Across the World) | 06 Jun 2024 | 01:05:40 | |
In this week’s episode on the Rox Lyfe podcast I get to chat with Geordie Stewart (@geordie_stewart on Instagram). Geordie has quite the story. He is the author of 3 books. The first details his experience of being the youngest ever person to scale the 7 summits (the highest mountains on each of the 7 continents). His second book documents his solo journey of 13,000 miles on a bike, from the UK to New Zealand, and his third is about his time training as an officer for the British Army at Sandhurst. We discuss all of these experiences, and more, as well as his experiences in HYROX which include him being part of the winning mixed doubles team at the recent HYROX London event, finishing in a time of 55.35mins. Bear Grylls has described him as “A true pioneer and an inspiration for tenacity and resilience.” And Sir Ranulph Fiennes has said that Geordie is “An ambitious young man with genuine determination,“ and that his “attitude is inspiring.’” I loved chatting with him. I think you’ll really enjoy, and hopefully be inspired by, our conversation.

| Steve Moharic (Special Forces Commando, and Attack Dog Handler, on HYROX) | 23 May 2024 | 00:54:37 | |
In this week’s episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast we get to speak with Steve Moharic (@k9_steve). Steve is a former Australian Special Forces Commando, turned dog trainer and hybrid Athlete. During his early years his sporting background was in running and swimming, before he made the switch to Triathlon. After burning out in his early 20’s, he fell deep into Melbourne’s criminal underworld. That was followed by joining the military in 2009. He was deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq, and spent over two years as part of Australia’s most elite force, the Tactical Assault Group. Later in 2016 he qualified as a Special Ops attack dog handler. We go over all this in our conversation, and lots more, as well as his experience in HYROX where he won his age group at his debut event in Melbourne, at a bodyweight of 105kg, which qualified him for the upcoming Nice World Championship. I was connected with Steve through Elite HYROX athlete Jon Wynn who was in the special forces at the same time as Steve. Steves story is really interesting - he’s a great guy, a great speaker, a great athlete – I loved chatting with him and I think you’ll really enjoy it.

| HYROX Despite Being Told He'd Never Walk Again (SCI Motivation) | 16 May 2024 | 01:13:58 | |
In this episode we get to speak with Maurice Andre (who you may know as @SCImotivation on Instagram). In Oct 2020 Maurice suffered a paragliding accident which left him with a spinal cord injury. Doctors told him he was unlikely to ever walk again. Life would be spent in a wheelchair. Yet just a few years later Maurice has completed several HYROX races, including 2 in one day at the recent London Olympia event. What’s more he has completed a 24 hour walking challenge, 100km bike rides and much more. He is an incredible guy, and an absolutely inspiration to many. It was a pleasure to be able to chat. It’s a really inspiring chat with an incredible positive guy, and I think you’ll really enjoy it.

| Coaching Elite 15 Athletes (Anthony Peressini) | 25 Apr 2024 | 01:23:03 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast we get to chat with Anthony Peressini (@awildperessini). Anthony is the husband of the HYROX World Champion Lauren Weeks. But he is also her coach, and coach to two other Elite 15 athletes in Lauren Griffiths and James Kelly. In this chat we talked about so much including his recent hybrid challenge of a heavy bench press and a marathon in the same day, his sporting history and his past as a coach, how his coaching of his wife, Lauren, has evolved over time and what has changed in her training to get her to the place where she was able to smash the World Record in Vienna. We also get into threshold training and lactate testing, mindset, what he changed in James Kelly's training in the few weeks before JK won the Mens Pro race in Cologne, and lots more. It was a really great chat, with someone who is building a very well respected name for himself in the world of hybrid coaching, and if you're into your HYROX training I think there’s a lot you’ll take away from it. 🏅 This episode is supported by MyProtein who sell a huge range of supplements, many of which are perfect for helping to support your training and racing in HYROX.

| Lee Tuck (from International Football to HYROX) | 18 Apr 2024 | 00:42:29 | |
In this week's episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I got to chat with Lee Tuck (@lee_tuck). Lee recently ran a Men’s Doubles race in HYROX Copenhagen, finishing in 51:05. Back in November, he finished the Men’s Open in 57:09 which puts him in the top 20 fastest athletes ever in that division. That’s all obviously very impressive but what’s more he’s only been in the sport for a relatively short period of time, as less than a year ago, he was still playing professional football, and actually played for the Malaysian international team. In this chat we talk about his career as a footballer, including playing in front of 80,000 fans, we talk about his training, racing in HYROX, and lots more. It was a really enjoyable chat with someone who has already had a very impressive life in sport and now has huge potential in HYROX. 🏅 This episode is supported by MyProtein who sell a huge range of supplements, many of which are perfect for helping to support your training and racing in HYROX.

| Charlie Botterill - from Pro Cyclist to HYROX | 11 Apr 2024 | 00:59:18 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast we chat with Charlie Botterill. This was recorded just a few days after Charlie won the mens open at HYROX Rotterdam in a time of 59:35. A few weeks prior to that he ran the second fastest mens pro doubles time ever - along with Jake Williamson who has also been on this pod – in a time of 51:51. Charlie is only 22 but is an amazing athlete and has quite a back story. We talk about his sporting past – including his time as a footballer and a pro cyclist living in France, we talk about his battle with depression after suffering an injury in football, as well as how he struggled with an eating disorder for many years before going to Uni. We get into some detail about the book he’s writing, his training, his racing in HYROX, the time he ran a marathon around Wembley stadium, some of his running numbers and the amazing numbers he used to be able to achieve on the bike, we talk about his mindset in a race and lots lots more. It was a great chat, with an impressive young athlete who seemingly has a very mature head on him and a great future in the sport of HYROX. 🏅 This episode is supported by MyProtein who sell a huge range of supplements, many of which are perfect for helping to support your training and racing in HYROX.

| Improving HYROX Performance with Lactate Threshold Testing - Paul Rimmer | 03 Oct 2024 | 01:06:55 | |
In this week's episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I get to chat with Paul Rimmer (athlete_lab_uk). Paul is an expert in testing athletes to help them find their true performance capabilities. I went to see him recently for lactate threshold testing and I thought it would be useful to get him on the podcast to talk about the work he does with athletes. We cover different ways to determine your lactate threshold pace, how this testing can influence your HYROX training, the steps you can be taking to improve your threshold running pace, and lots more.

| 5 Athletes Chasing the HYROX Elite | 04 Apr 2024 | 01:00:46 | |
In this episode I get to chat with 5 different top level HYROX athletes. On 13th and 14th of April, we will see the first of the last chance qualifiers where a large number of people will be battling it out in the Pro divisions in Cologne, trying to earn themselves a spot in the Elite races at the HYROX World Championships in Nice. The field is wide open on both the mens and the womens side though in the mens race it is only the winner who will claim their spot, and on the womens side it is the top 3. Ahead of these huge races I wanted to get some of the athletes who will be competing on to the show and have a chat with them. We talk about their training, their mindset, how they’re feeling, their taper plans ahead of the race, and lots more. You'll hear from, in this order, the brilliant Jon Wynn, Zara Piergianni, Hidde Weersma, Alina Willnow and James Kelly. I loved chatting to them all and I think you’ll really enjoy it. 🏅 This episode is supported by MyProtein who sell a huge range of supplements, many of which are perfect for helping to support your training and racing in HYROX.

| Kristi O'Connell (CrossFit Legend Takes on HYROX) | 27 Mar 2024 | 00:43:50 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I'm chatting with Kristi O’Connell. Kristi made her name in the world of CrossFit. She has appeared at the CrossFit Games in 7 consecutive years, 6 of those times as an individual, where the lowest she ever placed was 13th. She's now retired from competing in CrossFit but recently took on her first ever HYROX – competing in the Pro division in Houston where she won in a time of 64:37. Kristi has more of an endurance background than many crossfit athletes, and her potential in HYROX, should she choose to give it some focus, appears to be very high. She is certainly a name we could see competing in the Elite 15 at some point in time. In this chat we talk about her experience in her first HYROX race, her training, her sporting background, her best sporting experiences, how she transitioned from an endurance background into the more strength based world of crossfit, her mindset, and lots more. It was a great chat with a real sporting great, and I think you’ll really enjoy it. 🏅 This episode is supported by Xendurance who sell a range of supplements absolutely perfect for improving your performance in HYROX.

| Jess Towl (from Triathlon, to CrossFit, to HYROX Elite) | 21 Mar 2024 | 00:53:10 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I'm chatting with Jess Towl (@jesstowl). Jess had only raced in 2 HYROX races when she qualified for the Elite race Major in Washington DC. That seemingly incredible achievement becomes a little more understandable when you hear about her sporting background – from competing for Great Britain in the triathlon, to then moving to CrossFit where she set a world record, and now she has found HYROX. But even though she has an impressive sporting background, it feels like there could be even more to come from her, especially when you hear how low her running volume has been in the build up to the races she's done. We also discuss her transition from triathlon to the more strength based training for Crossfit, we talk about her training, what surprised her in HYROX, how she fared in the Washington race, her mindset, and lots more. Jess is a fantastically impressive athlete, it was great to chat with her, and I think you’ll really enjoy it. 🏅 This episode is supported by Xendurance who sell a range of supplements absolutely perfect for improving your performance in HYROX.

He has a PB in the Men’s Pro of 56:07, and was the first man to go under 50 minutes in HYROX when he and Michael Sandbach teamed up in the men’s doubles. In this chat we get lots into his training, his incredible running ability, how he trains on the ergs to make him one of the fastest on those in the elite field, his mindset and lots more. 🏅 This episode is supported by Xendurance who sell a range of supplements absolutely perfect for improving your performance in HYROX.

| Rich Ryan - Elite HYROX Athlete and World Record Holder | 07 Mar 2024 | 01:05:58 | |
In this week’s episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I get to chat with Rich Ryan (@reinforced_running_rich). Rich has featured in 3 of the Elite race majors this season, and in the most recent in Washington D.C. finished 3rd in a time of 58:16, securing himself a spot for the Elite race at the 2024 World Champs. He also holds the men’s doubles world record – along with recent podcast guest Pelayo Menendez – in a time of 48:36, and is part of the world record holding men’s relay team.

Rich is always great to chat to, he’s a really knowledgeable coach and athlete, and I think there’s plenty you can take away from this conversation. 🏅 This episode is supported by Xendurance who sell a range of supplements absolutely perfect for improving your performance in HYROX.

| Pelayo Menendez (from Ironman to HYROX Elite) | 29 Feb 2024 | 00:51:17 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast, I got to chat with Pelayo Menendez (@pelayofelechosa) Pelayo has only been racing in HYROX for a year but in that time has come a long way… In his first Pro race he had a 10 mins sled pull, and a 7 mins wall balls, and finished in 70mins, but in the most recent Major race in Vienna he finished second in a time of 56:59, qualifying him for the Elite race at the 2024 World Championships.

| Altitude Training for HYROX? (James Barber and Rebecca Brett from The Altitude Centre) | 08 Feb 2024 | 00:44:06 | |
In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I'm chatting with James Barber and Rebecca Brett from the Altitude Centre – who, at their facilities in London, help sportspeople obtain the benefits of training at altitude, without needing to go up a mountain to get them. In this chat we talk about the benefits of altitude training, how to obtain those if you can’t train at altitude or at their centre in London, the ways in which you can benefit for HYROX from this type of training, and how it can help when recovering from injury. But it’s not all about altitude - we also get into VO2 max and threshold testing, heat acclimation and lots more. It’s a very interesting, insightful chat that you’ll hopefully take a lot away from. James is the Lead Performance Specialist at The Altitude Centre. He has a Masters in Sport Science, and is a 15 min 5k runner. And Rebecca is a Loughborough University Sport Science student. Her sporting background is in Olympic Weightlifting but she was roped into her first HYROX in april last year and is now, like many of us, a self confessed HYROX addict. Towards the end of this chat we talk briefly about an altitude training camp they are putting on, from March 2024 in the lead up to HYROX London at Olympia, which will be a 6 week camp where you can get full access to their facilities, plus VO2 max testing, at a vastly reduced rate. If that’s something you might be interested in you can head to www.roxlyfe.com/altitude and it will redirect you to their website where you’ll get all the info you need. 🏅 This episode is supported by Xendurance who sell a range of supplements absolutely perfect for improving your performance in HYROX.

| Ben Bergeron - Legendary CrossFit Coach Chats HYROX and Mindset | 01 Feb 2024 | 00:55:37 | |
In today's episode I'm chatting with the brilliant Ben Bergeron. Ben is one of the most successful CrossFit coaches of all time. Amongst other achievements he has helped coach both Katrin Davidsdottir and Mat Fraser to CrossFit Games titles. He is the man behind Fitness app Comp Train and is the author of a fantastic book titled “Chasing Excellence”. Ben is clearly an incredibly knowledgeable coach, he’s always good to listen to and in particular has a huge focus on the mindset side of sport and life. And it’s that which we focus on today as we discuss the areas that he feels are vital in helping to create true sporting greats. It is a brilliant chat - I’ve wanted to speak with Ben for a long, long time and he didn’t disappoint. I personally think it’s a timeless episode that you’ll want to listen to again and again, and will always be able to take something away from it.
