I think John said he’s just doing doubles now ( mixed with his wife I think )
She’s a nice looker but looking at results will never be able to run fast enough to get Anywere near the podium.
I wonder if they would test him as he’s “ out” so to speak?
Out of the closet, or out of the competition?
I have no idea or no cares on his sexuality ?
Looking at recent efforts his wife will need to dramatically improve her running … like EPO improve … they wouldn’t … would they?!
The doping closet!
?!
He made a video all about his “ trt”
He’s as out as out can be I think
3-ish or nearly 4’s?
I haven’t looked that close but the event I looked at had the guy winning do the first in a low-3 but it got slower and slower where the last half were more 3:40-3:50. Obviously they do the strength stuff between but I’m 12.5 stone and I could comfortably run those paces and beat these guys at running but im not strength trained anything like they are?
Also, how accurate is the 1k? Is it linear or do they run round a track?
Im not saying their not doped its just that Im not convinced someone saying well there too heavy to run unassisted is credible evidence for doping?
It’s 8k total
The first and last lap are short long due to we’re you start/ finish.
The very best( pros) not the pro division it’s different … these are paid athletes ( not just doing heavier weights on the stations) hold 3:30 per km for each run…
I don’t think any of them can run a 30 min 10 k but some would be close I’m guessing, most of them can run 8x 3 min kms with say a mins rest.
The world champion is targeting 3:15 run pace for his next attempt, when you consider he’s rowing and skiing 5% slower than Olympic standard rowers in the middle it’s very impressive indeed
There heart rates usually go up on the stations and down on the runs ( slightly ) so there working hard constantly, people who know alot more about it than me are “ suspicious”
There faster runners than most we know and yet stronger than the strongest too, some have ridiculous dead lift and squat pbs.
I really hope there all clean.
Inpaid taking peds … who cares there just class A (unts
There was a feature about Hyrox on the BBC London news this evening.
Apparently it’s what everyone wants to do at the gym now 
The big guys running repeated 3m - 3m15 kms sounds like something that might good to watch.
Can just about get my head around how that might be possible if they had plenty of rest in between , some 400m runners are bigger guys for example. But if they are effectively using the runs to recover from resistance stuff too, it seems seriously impressive.
This is a “friend” of mine on Facebook.
Fitness nut/ hyrox/ life coach it seems. He did exactly the same race as Joe Skipper ( London Nov 2023) Pro division, heavier weights, sleds etc,
He was actually a min ish slower ( total run time) than Joe who is obviously a very very good runner, but beat him overall by 27 mins due to actually practicing and being very good at the stations.
He’s very good at hyrox and always comes top 10/5 overall, for his size he’s a very very good runner.
( I don’t really know this guy, he seems balanced and knowledgable I am on no way insinuating he takes peds)
“Life coach” 
He does look swole though.
What is swole?
He actually comes across really well, some good training tips too.
bet he can’t swim?!
i am mates with the former Clydesdale Category Olympic Distance Triathlon champ (not seen him for some years).
he was a big unit but could run pretty well…he would have lapped this up…
i also knew some paras who were exceptionally strong, fast and had endurance…
I would confirm the runs are really your recovery points or that was certainly the case for me, especially in solo races. As I said in my race report I was coming off the station around the 190-195 HR mark and trying to get back to 180 in a 1km run. That equated to running about 4:15-20.
But he’s competing against people who actually look like runners, I guess the stations take less out of him, but in the pro division that’s mind boggling to be honest.
That guy in that picture ( if the numbers are correct ) is a significantly faster runner than anyone on this site.
Joe skip ran a 30:18? 10 k in Leeds 5 weeks out from hyrox London
He was a min faster over 8k than Anthony, by that fag packet logic he can run a 32-33 min 10 k.
That is very very impressive
But your a very good runner by hyrox standards, shit I’m better than 90% of the people I know who do it and I’m ancient.
Lots of “ weightlifter “ types love the ergs, sleds, some even like the lunges and bbj”s most hate/ put up with/ suffer the runs.
There actually nervous the day before run sessions
Swole is the American bro-slang equivalent of “ripped” 
How old is that Anthony bloke? More importantly, how does he fare in the ‘pupil distance test’?
A lad I went to school with and still see regularly at races or parkrun was a para, can still do 17 minute 5k’s but is built like a middleweight boxer, definitely not an skinny endurance runner.
Edit: I should point out that I’m fairly certain he’s never used PED’s, he was a complete unit when he was in his early teens and played rugby, must have been intimidating seeing him on the same pitch!
35?
Ish
Lol… history of OCR used to be a fatty
