Pretty excited to be 'the guy in the cap' on this video! Good to meet and race with you Mark. Hope to see you at a future Hyrox event (or YT cross over vid!) - hopefully I wont break my foot 2km into the next one! Great Channel

It's so cool to see someone transform from a "normal" person, to someone who cares so deeply about fitness and inspires other people to try their best no matter the situation they find them self in.

Love that you get ranked on every individual activity. A bit like Strava segment leaderboards, so many different options to motivate yourself for the future. Great work, particularly on the row.

LMAO 3:26 Bald Guy deliberately barges that guy out of the way, then turns around and acts like it was an accident. Awesome video as always Mark. Respect!

Superb effort Mark, you should be really proud of that result, 5th place, clearly Above Average. Even though you are not affiliated to Hyrox, you have really sold this event 🙌🙌🙌

Amazing effort mate, I was a volunteer 'Yellow shirt Marshall' on the day was hoping to bump into you. Maybe next time you have inspired me to compete at the London event. Hyrox is going to be massive

Sheesh! Im gonna lay down in a dark room until the thought of doing this myself disappears. And well done Mrs Mark for all the cheer you gave him. I bet that pushed him on for a few meters as he passed you each time.

LOVED IT!!! Best video yet from you! So motivating. Thank you for sharing!!!

What a great video! First time watching you Mark but amazing. I’m at the beginning of my journey (38 and 18 stone) and was at Hyrox in Manchester… I finished 465th at 2hrs 13mins. Seeing someone smash it like you is really amazing and I’m heading to London trying to get under 2 hours. You’re really inspiring for someone like me! Oh and simply a great video explaining Hyrox… leading up to the event I could have really done with something this in-depth.

Congratulations Mark on your achievement 👏 well deserved for all your hard training day in and day out . Your a great motivated. 👊

Congrats Big Man, this was a fun watch. The way you look at the small victories and use that as motivation is inspiring. I’m a time conscious guy myself, I appreciated that in the video.

Great performance there and a solid video, well worth the wait! Looking forward to see how much you can improve for London! Was so cool to see it from the inside

Great video. Well done to Jenna! Also, your enthusiasm is wonderful. Love your progress.

Most enjoyable vids on you tube right now. Good on you Mark, keep it coming.

Amazing first effort, can't wait to see what you're like second time around now you know what too expect! Inspiring as always.

So happy to see that you DID it, had fun and I'm a nut about numbers so I appreciated all your timing info. Thank you for inspiring me to get off MY butt today and get in the gym.

Your positivity and interest in new challenges is inspiring. Thank you for this and your hilarious effort at Wiggins 1 hour event.

Awesome! Inspired by the effort and deeply appreciate your humility and humor, thanks

Great report, been looking forward to hearing how it went, and it seems to me it went really well. Well done!

Doing Hyrox New York in march! Great video! Got me even more pumped for my race and also gave me an idea of what to expect. Using this to stay in shape for my Spartan Beast in April. Keep it up!

Awesome effort - really enjoying your videos. I'm currently waiting for knee surgery after I tore my meniscus in August. Your videos have pulled me out my pit of sulking and i'm finally allowing myself to look forward to future events. This is one i'd never heard of but would love to do! Keep up the hard work!!

Great stuff! That looked like a lot of fun and right up my alley! I will definitely need to find me one of those next year when I’m recovered fully from my shoulder surgery. Thanks for sharing this and congrats on a great race! Cheers!

Love this video!!! Great commentary and visual so good! Thanks for this video

Enjoyed this video! Your enthusiasm about the event is infectious.

Loving your videos Mark 🙌

Kudos Mark! You’ve inspired me and my knackered knees to give it a go! Fantastic video!! Lube up man 😉

Awesome mate, loved the video, something about watching some one else suffering but also knowing that feeling!!

What an inspiration! I am studying for a huge exam later this year. I reckon I’ll give this a go after my exam. Thanks for sharing your experience! 👍👍

Great effort Mark. Been looking forward to this one and really enjoyed your report. Might be one for the future!

absolutely smashed it Mark, Well done!!

Awesome stuff! Only just found your channel the other day, watching you attempt world record marathon pace, and have been binging your videos since then… I’m an overweight 42 year old trying to get back into fitness. 10k runs were something I got into almost 20 years ago, but I randomly got hooked on OCRs more recently and this Hyrox looks awesome.

Fantastic job. You are an inspiration to all the big old guys who refuse to give in to being both big and old..

That was brilliant. Great post. Motivated.

Fun to watch and very inspiring! Thanks👍🏽

love it Mark! great work very well done !

A brilliant video and has inspired me as a 59 year old to enter the London Event. Fantastic effort Mark - well done!

Great vid Mark...well done at Hyrox. I love the "hint" at any company who supplies lubricant!!

Great job Mark, cant wait to see what you do in London...

Really enjoying your videos Mark. Top man 👍

My brother in law got me back into running and you're keeping me into it. Even if you aren't interested in anything you're involved in, you make everything entertaining and funny and easily watchable. Keep it up, I'm enjoying all the laughs.

Been waiting for this one Mark, loved it. Looked a great event but going to try my first SUP BIKE RUN in May see how I get on.

thanks so much for these Hyrox videos, both explaining all parts and aspects as well as adding the realness and human touch to your report on this exciting challenge. I hope I'll get to see you at a Hyrox event eventually. I'm going to Copenhagen for my first take on Hyrox. Thanks again and good luck with your next challenge.

You cannot hide your excitement. 👍 Great result and Jenna did fantastic job. Well done both. I hope Nixon doesn't feel neglected.

This looks absolutely mental but unlike the Spartans, I reckon I could do everything (although the wallballs would be bloody tough). I really like how you haven't taken yourself too seriously and have made it accessible for all. It's good to highlight these things and I'm looking at signing up for one based on this. I'm a typical sprinter cyclist physique (185cm, 80kgs), so I'd struggle with anything too heavy on the arms but it looks like really good fun.

Watching this really pumps me up for fitness. By the way bud, you keep calling yourself old, but you look younger now than when I first subbed; something is working for you.

Well done mark looking forward to seeing your progress at the next one

Great video highlighting an event I never knew existed. Thanks for the in-depth review! As a late 50's lifelong runner who's wanting to do more full body conditioning, Hyrox is highly appealing. As I get older I'm realizing I need to focus on "total fitness" a lot more than I have in the past. I'm a typical distance runner build (skinny, and not a Spring chicken anymore) so I'll need to take my time building the functional strength for this. The events look challenging but completly doable with some work. I think it might be Hyrox 2023 for me!

I have just got on to this channel - (the algo needs work KZfaq!) - I love the fact you work hard and your adherence to eating generally what you want within the boundaries of healthy for you! Just how I'm playing it!

Looks like fun, another great video👍

Great work and impressive results - looking forward to the next event.

Great video, love the different events and sports tech. Good balance so far.

Great vids, good humor and interesting content. I'd love to see more vids around how you train.

If you continue like that you gotta change your motto to 'close to top', congrats man! Some amazing results, thats extremly motivating to me!

Hats off! Amazing effort mate!! 💪💪

Fantastic effort and another great video!!

Well done Mark! Awesome video 💪

Thanks Mark for this and all your other amazing videos. I’ve been a runner and cyclist for the last 20 years, and have a similar build to you! (But female). I started training at a Hyrox specific gym 6 weeks ago and it has changed my life and my running. Running my fastest half marathon times pre kids and I am 42 now. My mate who got me to the hyrox training gym asked me to sign up to Hyrox when I had only had one session (and was nearly sick!). I wasn’t sure as it sounded like some elite training thing that I would not have the time for. Your videos have persuaded me that it’s doable and fun. I am doing Hyrox London in November as just missed out in the May tickets. So I just wanted to thank you. I loved your other video re binge eating- very entertaining and humble. Have a great 2024 🎉

I'll be at Hyrox London in April, my first fitness competition of any kind very excited! Just sprained my ankle running so hoping for a quick recovery. Love the channel Mark very inspiring and makes me chuckle 😊

Great info thanks for making this video! Really inspiring

This is a brilliant video. Just found this channel and it is too class.

Great video. Thanks for the introduction to this kind of sport. Really want to try it once I master triathlon. Always wanted to do some crossover between weightlifting and endurance sports. Greetings from Hillingdon.

Fantastic. Inspiring. Well done!

Well done bruv, that looked amazing 👊🏾✊🏾

Great video and brilliant explanation of hyrox for people thinking of doing the event! You were in my wave!

Never seen this before, found it inspiring, great video really makes me want to give it a go 👍

IMPRESSIVE 👍👍👍 great vid and well done 👏

Amazing content, love your channel, so inspirational. I’m a bigger guy too so really appreciate your advice / experiences. Keep it up, your content is amazing 🙌

Great content as always! I've been considering doing this for a year or so and have now booked to do London in November 👍💪

You did amazing! I'm excited to see how April event goes!

Really enjoyed this video. I think you are currently peerless when it comes to representing older taller/heavier guys who juggle training with work and family. Outstanding effort and great result.

Another inspirational video. Might even give it a go myself. That row was definitely quick. With bit of practice your burpees will definitely improve.

Awesome job! That looks great fun 🙂 I hope they have something like this in NZ!

Awesome work! It looks great fun, hope to give it a try in the very near future.

Well done! Been looking forward to this all weekend. A very 'photogenic' event. Reall felt for you on those burpees. 😵

I've never been vaguely interested in OCR but this looks like a great challenge to do. Great video as always

Cheers to mini victories big man!

sounds like an amazing event. great job

Great video, so much so that I have signed up to the London event in April. See you there!

I really enjoyed this video. Well done.

Really interesting video and a great test of all round fitness. You did amazingly well for your first event with limited training. Will be great to see you progess at the next event. Hope your training goes really well. Congratulations. 👍

a very good video again, I'm going to do this next year looks fantastick

Superb effert there mate. Gonna take a look at the next Manchester event and get myself booked on.

Great video. The data you present is definitely interesting: I wouldn't want to see the video without it!

Brilliant. Well done. Looks like really hard work. Reckon you could smash it the next time.

This looks the nuts! Good effort. I'm going to sign up for the London event! 👍

Great content mark

Such an inspiration! 🙏

This event is brilliant. The fact you have rankings and compare is good too

Awesome job, you're a machine!

Fab footage on brilliant event and a fab performance mark,well done, your running consistancy was impressive,your supportive wife is mint pal

Looks great fun! Definitely signing up for the London event.

Them jumping burpees man… I love it!

That was awesome! She is an incredible cheerleader!

Awesome video!!! Thank you for sharing your experience on HYROX, I like it so much that motivate me to sign up for my first HYROX, I live in USA in Massachusetts and I looked for an HYROX event right away after watching your video, and I was so lucky to find out that HYROX is coming to Massachusetts for the first time this March 19 to Boston so I sign up for it and started training for it!!! Once again thank you for your great content!!!

absolutely unreal well done

awesome effort especially on the rower !

Great video Mark. I’ve been looking for something to mark my 50th year on the planet next year….Hyrox might well be it.

That looked great, I'd never heard of it until you mentioned it before Christmas, I will look to do one towards the end of the year if there is one. Well done on your performance.

Great video. Well done!

Just discovered you yesterday (thanks to your half marathon world record video- brilliant BTW!) and would NEVER have dreamed of looking at something like a Hyrox event but you've got me almost tempted. 😂 I'm still a loooooong way off anything like this, I'm very much still in the phase of being absolutely delighted by a new parkrun PB (sub 30 earlier this year for the first time was the best feeling ever), and am pushing myself by aiming for a half marathon in September (I've discovered that I really like getting a medal at the end). This looks so cool though, maybe I'll be brave enough to give it a try in 2023! Thanks for making it seem so accessible.
