2. Strategic Resting: While it's important to minimize time spent in the Roxzone, Benida should also strategically plan for short rest periods during the race. Identifying key points in the race where she can take short breaks to catch her breath and recover will help maintain her energy levels and overall performance.

3. Mental Preparation: Hyrox races can be physically and mentally challenging. Benida should focus on mental preparation techniques such as visualization and positive self-talk to stay motivated and focused during the race. Practicing mental toughness during her training sessions will also help her push through any moments of fatigue or discomfort during the race.

In conclusion, Benida Lehnert had a strong performance in the Hyrox race in Munich. While she performed well overall, there are areas where she can make improvements to further enhance her performance.
