Kicking Off a Sporty 2025: HYROX DoublesBack in 2021, I took on my first HYROX event, and since then, I’ve completed six Single Open races and two Doubles. But this time was special! To kick off 2025 in the most epic way possible, my wife and I teamed up for our first HYROX Doubles in Manchester, and what a ride it was!
A Deal Was Made Now, let’s be honest—my wife was not exactly thrilled about the idea of doing a HYROX event. She had always been skeptical about the stress of competition, but after some negotiations, we struck a deal. I would take care of all the workouts—every single sled push, row, and burpee broad jump—while we would run the eight 1-kilometer stretches together at her pace. She dictated the tempo, and I just had to keep up. And with that, we found ourselves at the HYROX Manchester event, surrounded by an incredible community of athletes, volunteers, and judges who created an atmosphere of support, excitement, and pure sportsmanship. The HYROX Experience—More Than Just a Race Manchester holds a special place in our hearts. During my time as Regional Performance Manager at UK Athletics, our family lived in the High Peak, just outside the city. Returning here for such an event added another layer of nostalgia and excitement. From the moment we arrived, the energy in the air was electric. The HYROX UK community welcomed us with open arms, proving once again that this sport truly is for everyone—from elite competitors aiming for record times to first-timers just hoping to cross the finish line. The volunteers were fantastic, offering words of encouragement at every station. The judges were supportive, ensuring that everyone met the standards but also cheering us on as we powered through each challenge. There were no egos—just a shared determination to finish strong. Crossing the Finish Line—And What Comes Next? As we ran our final kilometer, side by side, I could see it in my wife’s face: pride, determination, and a sense of accomplishment. She had done something she never imagined she would. And as we crossed the finish line, it was official—she was now part of the HYROX family. So, will we do another HYROX Doubles together? Well, let’s just say I’ll have to ask her again next year... but I might have to sweeten the deal this time! Why HYROX is a Sport for Everyone This experience reinforced something I’ve always believed—HYROX is one of the most scalable fitness competitions in the world. Whether you’re aiming for maximum performance or just looking to finish the race, this sport meets you where you are. It’s about progress, camaraderie, and pushing yourself in ways you never thought possible. And no matter your goal—whether it’s improving your time, completing your first event, or simply staying active—there’s a place for you in the HYROX community. Ready for Your Own HYROX Challenge? If you’ve been on the fence about trying HYROX, let this be your sign. Grab a friend, set a goal, and step onto that competition floor. You might just surprise yourself with what you’re capable of.
