Sam Williamson's performance in the 2024 Birmingham HYROX race was commendable. He ranked in the top 29% of 4107 athletes and within the top 36% of his age group (30-34). His overall finish time was 01:23:39, showing solid endurance. Most notably, his total running time was 01:21 faster than average. This indicates that Sam has a strong running profile. However, it seems he started the race slower than average in Running 1, but progressively gained speed in subsequent running segments. This might suggest that Sam could work on optimising his race-start strategy.
Given Sam’s strong running profile, it would be advantageous for him to maintain a steady pace throughout the race, saving energy for the strength-based segments. As the race progresses, he should aim to increase his speed in the running segments. Additionally, focusing on quick and efficient transitions between segments will also help in reducing the overall time. As for the strength-based segments, practicing the actual movements in training will improve his technique and speed during the race.
