That was special.
I first met @jake_deaner at a track session back at the start of this year. I thought, “this guy is pretty quick for 18”. The following month I saw him rip a 5k ski test at a 1:51 avg absolutely burying himself. I thought “this guy could be seriously good at Hyrox”. Yesterday, I got the absolute pleasure of doing a Hyrox (his 2nd ever!!) with Jake after a tough training block together. And right now I’m thinking “this guy is seriously good at Hyrox. Just how good can he become…?”
Jake - I f*cking loved that. Cannot wait to watch you become an elite athlete in this sport. Will be supporting you the whole way. Just need to work on your line stepping ;)
Proud friend. Lucky partner. 🤝🫶

Stressful month. But the sun is out, the hair is blonde, and Fin has a new puppy.
Very lucky to have the people that I do in my life. Thank you for bearing with me while I’ve been non-communicative, moody, and snotty.
The Hyrox World Champs qualification is still a work in progress. Looking at flights to the far corners of the Earth atm…

Flag secured 🤝
Buzzing to podium on home soil in London.
2400 pairs. 2nd in AG. 8th overall.
The 2 cans of Red Bull & Deep Heat make all the hours of training worth it 🫡
That was hard!
1:01. PB. And a lot of pain (tiny bit of fun too)
First solo since Worlds back in June last year. Super happy with the effort level and race strategy/execution. Had a pretty grim stitch throughout most of the race which made the runs a challenge. But yeh all in all a decent day in the office.
1 more race to go. Then time to chill, mend the back, and then get back to training.
Thanks for everyone who supported x
