Overall Performance


Laura Ward performed well in the 2023 Birmingham Hyrox race, finishing with an overall rank of 231 out of 1703 athletes, placing her in the top 13% overall. In her age group (35-39), she ranked 52 out of 356 athletes, placing her in the top 14%. Her overall time was 01:30:08, with a total running time of 00:47:30, which was 02:54 slower than the average.

Laura's best running lap was impressive, with a time of 00:04:06, which was 00:54 faster than the average. This suggests that she excels in shorter bursts of running. However, her performance in the other running segments was not as strong, with times ranging from 00:05:36 to 00:06:46, all slower than the average. This indicates that Laura may need to focus more on her endurance and long-distance running.

Segments to Improve


Based on the splits analysis, the following segments were identified as areas where Laura lost the most time: Run Total, Sled Pull, Farmers Carry, Running 7, Sandbag Lunges, Running 6, Running 8, Running 5, Running 4, and Sled Push.

To improve in the Run Total segment, Laura should focus on improving her overall fitness and endurance. Incorporating longer distance runs into her training routine will help her build the necessary stamina for this segment.

In the Sled Pull segment, Laura was 00:45 slower than the average. To improve in this area, she should work on her strength and power. Exercises such as deadlifts, squats, and lunges can help build the necessary lower body strength for the sled pull.

The Farmers Carry segment was another area where Laura lost time. To improve in this segment, she should focus on grip strength and upper body strength. Exercises such as farmer's walks, pull-ups, and rows can help improve her performance in the Farmers Carry.

In the Running 7 segment, Laura was 00:37 slower than the average. To improve in this segment, she should focus on maintaining a steady pace and improving her endurance. Interval training and tempo runs can help improve her speed and endurance for this segment.

The Sandbag Lunges segment was another area where Laura lost time. To improve in this segment, she should focus on leg strength and stability. Exercises such as lunges, squats, and step-ups can help improve her performance in the Sandbag Lunges.

For the remaining running segments (Running 6, Running 8, Running 5, and Running 4), Laura should continue to focus on improving her endurance and pacing. Incorporating longer distance runs and interval training into her routine will help improve her overall running performance.

Strategies


During the race, Laura should focus on pacing herself properly to avoid burning out early on. It is important for her to maintain a steady pace throughout the race, especially in the longer running segments.

She should also prioritize proper technique and form during the strength-based segments, such as the Sled Pull and Farmers Carry. Maintaining good form will help conserve energy and improve efficiency during these segments.

Additionally, Laura should practice transitions between segments to minimize time spent in the roxzone. This can be achieved by incorporating circuit training or interval training into her routine, simulating the transitions between different exercises.

Overall, Laura should focus on improving her endurance and overall fitness to enhance her performance in the running segments. Incorporating specific exercises and training strategies targeted at improving her weaknesses will help her become a more well-rounded athlete in future races.
