First up - HYROX.
I haven’t really had much time to taper and, as much as I don’t want to downplay Worlds, it hasn’t been the main focus… getting ready for Brecon has.
That said, running’s feeling good, I’ve put in plenty of work on the ergs, and the next four weeks are all about adding in another threshold session and getting stuck into more sleds.
The goal’s pretty simple - head out to Sweden and absolutely send it. We know we’re still a fair way off the top guys, but if we can beat our qualification time, learn a few things to help others, and mix it up with some big dogs, then that’s exactly what we’re going there for.
Brecon… these next nine weeks are HUGE.
I’ve been dealing with a bit of an Achilles ni**le, so the run volume hasn’t been ideal, and I’ve had to swap a few hours each week onto the bike instead. But over the next few weeks, the plan is to hit two big volume blocks (around 70 mile weeks) and recover as well as I can in between.
Doing the recce the other week, I found out that around 50% of the field don’t finish and the average completion time is 35 hours. This race is seriously no joke. Brecon is bleak, brutal, and I’m going to be deep in the trenches for a long, long time… but honestly, that’s exactly where I want to be.
See what I’m made of.
See how far I can push it.
And hopefully cross that line in one piece.
Properly fired up to get after it these next couple of months.
