Overall Performance
Rob Friskes delivered a commendable performance in the 2024 Amsterdam Hyrox race, placing in the top 68% overall and top 67% in his age group. His strength is evident in the strength-related exercises like the Sled Push and Sled Pull, where he significantly outperformed the average. However, his running performance, particularly after the initial laps, lagged behind the average, indicating that he may have started too fast, as seen in his excellent first running split. Rob shows a hybrid profile with a slight edge in strength exercises but could benefit from improving his running endurance and pacing strategy.
