When analyzing her splits, it is evident that Aurelie excelled in certain segments, such as Running 1, Ski Erg, Sled Push, Sled Pull, Burpees Broad Jump, Rowing, Farmers Carry, Running 7, Sandbag Lunges, and Wall Balls. These segments were generally faster than the average times for her finish time.

However, there were areas where Aurelie lost time compared to the average. The segments with the most time lost were Running Total, Running 2, Running 6, Running 5, Running 3, and Running 8. These segments should be the focus of improvement for Aurelie to enhance her overall performance.

Segments to Improve

1. Running Total: Aurelie's total running time was 01:02:04, which was 10:07 slower than the average. To improve this segment, Aurelie should work on improving her overall fitness and stamina. Incorporating interval training, long-distance runs, and hill sprints into her training routine can help improve her running endurance and speed. Additionally, she can focus on improving her transition time between exercise zones to minimize the time spent in the roxzone.

2. Running 2: Aurelie's time for Running 2 was 00:08:37, which was 02:28 slower than the average. To improve this segment, Aurelie should specifically target her running endurance and speed. Interval training, tempo runs, and fartlek workouts can help improve her running stamina and pace. Additionally, incorporating strength exercises that target the muscles used in running, such as lunges, squats, and plyometric exercises, can enhance her running performance.

3. Running 6: Aurelie's time for Running 6 was 00:09:10, which was 02:25 slower than the average. Similar to Running 2, she should focus on improving her running endurance and speed. Training techniques such as interval training, tempo runs, and hill repeats can help enhance her running stamina and pace. Strengthening exercises targeting the lower body, such as step-ups, calf raises, and hamstring curls, can also contribute to improved running performance.

4. Running 5: Aurelie's time for Running 5 was 00:09:14, which was 02:19 slower than the average. To enhance her performance in this segment, she should focus on improving her running endurance and speed. Incorporating longer runs, tempo runs, and interval training into her training routine can help improve her running stamina and pace. Additionally, including exercises that target the core muscles, such as planks and Russian twists, can contribute to improved running posture and efficiency.

5. Running 3: Aurelie's time for Running 3 was 00:08:52, which was 02:18 slower than the average. To improve this segment, she should focus on improving her running endurance and speed. Incorporating interval training, tempo runs, and hill sprints into her training routine can help enhance her running stamina and pace. Additionally, exercises targeting the muscles used in running, such as lunges, squats, and calf raises, can contribute to improved running performance.

6. Running 8: Aurelie's time for Running 8 was 00:09:09, which was 01:27 slower than the average. To improve this segment, she should focus on improving her running endurance and speed. Interval training, tempo runs, and fartlek workouts can help enhance her running stamina and pace. Including exercises that target the muscles used in running, such as lunges, squats, and plyometric exercises, can also contribute to improved running performance.

Strategies

During the race, Aurelie should focus on maintaining a consistent pace and avoiding starting too fast, especially in the running segments where she tends to lose time. Pacing herself throughout the race will help her conserve energy and maintain a steady performance. Additionally, she should pay attention to her transition time between exercise zones (roxzone) and aim to minimize this time by practicing efficient transitions during training.

Incorporating specific training sessions that mimic the demands of the race, such as circuit training or race simulation workouts, can help Aurelie prepare both physically and mentally for the challenges she may encounter during the Hyrox race. By simulating the race conditions, she can identify areas where she may struggle and work on improving her performance in those specific segments.

Lastly, it is important for Aurelie to prioritize recovery and include rest days in her training schedule. Adequate rest and recovery will allow her muscles to repair and strengthen, reducing the risk of injury and improving overall performance.
