  • My first Hyrox and all I got was a lousy patch

    Now that I am on the other side of my first Hyrox experience with my finisher patch in hand, I am looking back at Hyrox Atlanta 2025 with event management eyes. I enjoyed my experience challenging myself during the race, but these are the things I noticed as part of the greater event. Crowd Crossings…

  • Hyrox is racing to the top

    Think of what fitness based competition you could sign up to participate in. I imagine what comes to mind is 5k, 10k, marathon, Spartan race. What is the commonality? It is largely cardio based. And how often do people, who are even into fitness, declare their hatred for running? With the growing fitness and wellness…

  • You still lost

    If I were to think about my current life approach as an athlete, taking on that that metaphor for my life, I would say that I lost the race. It wouldn’t be because I was ill prepared for lack of training. Nor would it be because I was bested by my fellow athletes. Not even…

  • The Musk problem

    Tesla sales were down 71%. If like me you don’t fancy yourself a math genius, we can both just rest assured that equals a lot money lost. It had nothing to do with the product itself. Not even the cybertruck catching fire or concerns about self-driving systems led to such a drop. It all has…
