  • Join me on my HYROX tourism adventure in the sunny Spanish city of Malaga! This video takes you on a walkthrough the HYROX race floor, where I set a new personal best time, followed by some well-deserved R&R on the beach (maybe a little too much, as evident by my sunburn!).
    But the real highlight? Discovering the joys of HYROX tourism and why it's an absolute must-try for fitness enthusiasts in the UK and beyond. With races selling out quickly here, Malaga offered the perfect opportunity to combine my passion for HYROX with a sunny getaway.
    Get ready for a blend of race action, travel adventures, and personal reflections on why HYROX tourism is my choice for fitness vacationing. Whether you're a seasoned HYROX athlete or just looking for a fun way to explore new destinations, this video will have you dreaming of your next HYROX tourism escapade!

    Why take staycations, when you can often take racecations for the same price!

      Between the Hot for Teacher T shirt in the intro and the VH shorts, I think this should me more of an homage to them than HYROX!! It's not an easy race, that's for sure. And there's a lot of room to 'hide' and take it easier if you don't press on, which just drips time away. That's the biggest challenge, keeping at near maximum for the whole race!!

    Lets be honest, any type of tourism in UK is a joke. What you get for what you pay is ridiculous. I know of friends that fly from where they each live in uk to meet up in Malaga as its cheaper to fly there than to take a train to or fly to London to meet. And you have beautiful culture,proper food and fantastic weather. No brainer.

      It was cheaper to stay 2 nights in a lovely Spanish hotel than it will be for 1 night in a Holiday Inn Express in London. And when they brought me my bill for lunch - a big burger and two (celebratory) beers, and it was only 15 Euros, I thought they'd made a mistake!!

    It was really well ran. The pro men should not be competing at the same time as the normal women’s race though that has to change

    The Spanish really do cities well. Malaga looks lovely. I’m hoping to run the Half Marathon there in December. Valencia, Seville and Madrid are outstanding. Enjoyed the video, well done on a pb. Good luck for London. 👍

    Awesome a PB is a PB well done! And great feeling to get a PB with some work ons. Looks lovely over there, one for the list. Even doing HYROX training amongst your rowing is adding strengthm running and other movements that can only benefit overall condition, core etc.. See you in London, my only race of the season but delighted to be going after cancelling 2 events due to illness.

    I thought you had knocked Hyrox on the head after the last competition did you no favours re injury? Personally I’m very sceptical of the big money making machine it has become 🤔

    • @rowalong
      @rowalong  5 місяців тому

      My legs really don't enjoy the running (which is why I'm only 5mins per Km) but I do enjoy the race itself - and more importantly, it's keeping me inspired while I wait to turn 50 and return to Indoor Rowing competitions!

    • @Nomads_Rowing
      @Nomads_Rowing 5 місяців тому

      The indoor Versa challenge would be worth looking at - a lot to take on rather than smashing out a 2K

      ​​⁠ definitely if there’s an element of travel involved. Going all the way to Boston to row for 6:41 just seems daft now!!
