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.
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 🙌🙌🙌
I hope so-my worry was that it would come across like something for serious serious sports people but there was so many “normal” folk there. And they are almost more inspiring than the elite people. Takes some balls to be out of shape and rock up at something like that and compete with shirtless jacked people running around everywhere 👍🏼
ok, its a couple of days after Hyrox Manchester 2023. I'm walking like John Wayne and struggling to get up from my seat. You my friend are responsible for the way I'm feeling this morning :-). This video is what motivated me to try Hyrox. I loved and hated it at the same time. Probably one of the toughest things I've done. I came close to bailing on the burpees, that was awful. I got as far as the wall balls but had nothing left. I'd never seen or tried wall balls before but it takes energy and strength and I'd left that behind on other workouts, ha ha. I managed what I thought was about 15 or 20 throws, only for my spotter to say "nope, thats 3 valid throws". At this point I couldnt face another 2 or 3 hundred in order to register 100 valid ones, so bailed. Great day, totally exhausting. Might do it again one day with a little more practice.
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!
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.
Say hi if you spot me in London 👍🏼. And the amazing thing for you is that every time you do a Hyrox you will smash your previous best. It’s not an event that is massively impacted by your age either (which is handy as I’m nearly 50) so you have years and years to just carry on improving.
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.
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.
The thing that always got me about Spartans was that so many people leave having failed an obstacle. I’m not sure going home having failed something, even if it’s only a bit of the overall race, is that great. I still love them, I just wish there was a better solution than saying “nope, you can’t do that so start doing Burpee‘s”
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!
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.
I may need to find my own dark room and lock myself away too until the temptation goes away! I am actually in London too so it can't be far from me, but I need to do more running to get myself up to speed fitness wise!
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.
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.
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 have just got on to this channel - (the algo needs work RUclips!) - 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!
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.
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
Thank you so much for volunteering, i also did hyrox manchester and i appreciate you all! ive judged crossfit comps and i know how exhausting it can be, so thank you for your hard work!!
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.
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!
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.
Very different feel to OCR. Any random person is much more likely to find something that appeals on this than most OCR events. I love doing OCR but do accept that it is basically a muddy trail run for 99% of it and that does not tick everyone's box!
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!!
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.
Burpee broad jumps were my best zone, farmers carry was my worst. Hyrox really shows your strengths and weaknesses. Getting the breakdown and data of how you do in each workout and run is really good. Really handsome guy runs into the rower at 11:28.
Here we go mark, Hyrox NYC is tomorrow! Watching your video one more time for some last minute tips and prep and to get me even more amped up than I already am! Wish me luck!
@@MarkLewisfitness well Hyrox NYC is done and in the book. Definitely was a bigger challenge than I expected but it was an amazing time! I can now say I agree with everything you said in your video. Could have done better for sure. Thanks for all your help Mark and keep up the great work! Maybe I’ll see you at the next one if you make the trip to the U.S.!
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 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. 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.
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!
This sounds like just my cup of tea and ideal for data nerds! I must admit the weight levels had me scratching my head a bit; I've done both farmer's walk and sled push at my gym and for the former, 24kg per hand seemed perfectly doable. But I did a double-take at the sled push! I've tried reps over 10 metres (all the space available) with sled+40kg and I could actually get some speed going. Sled+50 was noticeably slower and sled+60 was a proper slog. I'm not sure I could even move it with 125! (I'm 6ft and 80kg btw). Either my gym got their carpet from a closed-down nightclub or I have some serious training to do if I want to get into Hyrox...
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!!!
Good video, cheers for the insight. I’m a runner. 15.10 5k recent best and been convinced to do this next month. Actually intrigued to see how the training goes for a summer of racing after this event! I have some history of this type of stuff from when I was in the Marines so hopefully won’t thrash me too much!!!!
Just signed up for Manchester in January - decided this was a perfect winter fitness event target to sort my fat ass out ready for IM Hamburg, UK, Cork and Wales next year as it looks to perfectly compliment triathlon training
Well done Mark. I thought you'd be suited to Hyrox; you're definitely suited to rowing. Maybe have a bash at a concept2 event. Great to see how it all works out on the day. Not sure why so many folk feel the urge to go shirtless at an indoor event..in Manchester..in winter
I like the method of using people around you to gauge your pace, it’s the same one I use for running especially- I like to think I’m a fit average individual plus I don’t work out around pro athletes, mostly people older than me. Nice
Ahh same one as me! I was in the pro female division, I'm just editing my video for my channel and i was looking through for channel titles and saw this. It was so good wasn't it!!
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.
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

Awesome video as always Mark. Respect!
I noticed that too!!

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

Yeah I thought the same unlike CrossFit etc where some of the events are highly skilled
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!
Your positivity and interest in new challenges is inspiring. Thank you for this and your hilarious effort at Wiggins 1 hour event.
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.

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

Awesome mate, loved the video, something about watching some one else suffering but also knowing that feeling!!
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
You guys were on it! That place was perfectly organised chaos 😂. Poor marshalling at an event like that would destroy it so a big thanks from me 🙏

If you continue like that you gotta change your motto to 'close to top', congrats man! Some amazing results, thats extremly motivating to me!
Fun to watch and very inspiring! Thanks👍🏽
Amazing first effort, can't wait to see what you're like second time around now you know what too expect! Inspiring as always.
That was brilliant. Great post. Motivated.
Great vids, good humor and interesting content. I'd love to see more vids around how you train.

Turns out we were in the same wave, never realised first time I watched 😅
This is a brilliant video. Just found this channel and it is too class.
Great info thanks for making this video! Really inspiring
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 Mark for your inspiration. I finished my first hyrox Amsterdam. 1:50, third place 60+ divison. I am also 100 kg.
Nice work 💪
Here we go mark, Hyrox NYC is tomorrow! Watching your video one more time for some last minute tips and prep and to get me even more amped up than I already am! Wish me luck!
NYC and Hyrox! That’s got to be on my to do list! Go smash it and update me on how you get on 💪💪💪

If you see me say hi 👋 👍🏼

LOVED IT!!! Best video yet from you! So motivating. Thank you for sharing!!!
Great video, so much so that I have signed up to the London event in April. See you there!
Another inspirational video. Might even give it a go myself. That row was definitely quick. With bit of practice your burpees will definitely improve.
Looks like fun, another great video👍
Great video. The data you present is definitely interesting: I wouldn't want to see the video without it!
Lucky git for having a partner to cheer you on. Having a partner who can also do an excellent recording while cheering you on - priceless.
absolutely smashed it Mark, Well done!!
Brilliant - well done - at age 55 I would love to try this - do strenght trsining and long distance cycling usually
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.

Them jumping burpees man… I love it!
You are a natural rower. Consider entering a rowing competition just to see how you compare. Nice job.
Well done mark looking forward to seeing your progress at the next one
This sounds like just my cup of tea and ideal for data nerds!

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

Enjoyed this video! Your enthusiasm about the event is infectious.
Superb effert there mate. Gonna take a look at the next Manchester event and get myself booked on.
You did amazing! I'm excited to see how April event goes!
Great effort Mark. Been looking forward to this one and really enjoyed your report. Might be one for the future!
Great work and impressive results - looking forward to the next event.
Awesome work! It looks great fun, hope to give it a try in the very near future.
Good video, cheers for the insight. I’m a runner. 15.10 5k recent best and been convinced to do this next month. Actually intrigued to see how the training goes for a summer of racing after this event!
I have some history of this type of stuff from when I was in the Marines so hopefully won’t thrash me too much!!!!
Sounds like you’ve got the tools in your locker to smash it- will look out for your name on the leaderboard! Good luck and enjoy
Awesome job! That looks great fun 🙂 I hope they have something like this in NZ!
Fantastic effort and another great video!!
Just signed up for Manchester in January - decided this was a perfect winter fitness event target to sort my fat ass out ready for IM Hamburg, UK, Cork and Wales next year as it looks to perfectly compliment triathlon training
You cannot hide your excitement. 👍 Great result and Jenna did fantastic job. Well done both. I hope Nixon doesn't feel neglected.
had a weekend with Jen's aunt......think he prefered that!
thanks, hope it comes to South Africa soon.
This event is brilliant. The fact you have rankings and compare is good too
Fantastic. Inspiring. Well done!
Great video and brilliant explanation of hyrox for people thinking of doing the event! You were in my wave!
I've got to start wearing a RUclips T-shirt so people can tap me on the shoulder and ask for a shout out in the video 😁
Brilliant effort mate, massive well done. When's your next one then
Brilliant I am booked in for my first one in Dec
a very good video again, I'm going to do this next year looks fantastick
This looks the nuts! Good effort. I'm going to sign up for the London event! 👍
Kudos Mark! You’ve inspired me and my knackered knees to give it a go! Fantastic video!! Lube up man 😉
Well done Mark. I thought you'd be suited to Hyrox; you're definitely suited to rowing. Maybe have a bash at a concept2 event.
Great to see how it all works out on the day.
Not sure why so many folk feel the urge to go shirtless at an indoor event..in Manchester..in winter
There was a lot flesh 😂
Honestly it was like a sauna!
I like the method of using people around you to gauge your pace, it’s the same one I use for running especially- I like to think I’m a fit average individual plus I don’t work out around pro athletes, mostly people older than me. Nice
See you in London-I'm in your age group too. Good luck with your training.
Ahh same one as me! I was in the pro female division, I'm just editing my video for my channel and i was looking through for channel titles and saw this. It was so good wasn't it!!
Loved it! Don’t steal my title, I put 4 seconds thought into it 😂😂. Send me a link when yours is ready, I’ll add it to my description on this 👍🏼
Great video, love the different events and sports tech. Good balance so far.
Awesome job, you're a machine!
IMPRESSIVE 👍👍👍 great vid and well done 👏
Great content mark
Never seen this before, found it inspiring, great video really makes me want to give it a go 👍
Well done Mark! Awesome video 💪
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.
If you can do a sub 30 parkrun....you can 100% do a Hyrox!
Looking forward to Hyrox London on the 1st May 2022, all booked, 1st fitness competition I’ve done, looking forward to it, I think! 😅
Good effort! Spotted myself at 4:08 :D
I really enjoyed this video. Well done.
