Paul Smith presented a commendable performance in the 2024 Manchester HYROX event, ranking in the top 21% of all athletes and top 25% in his age group (25-29). As a British athlete, Paul demonstrated his strength in the Sandbag Lunges and Wall Balls segments, finishing faster than average and ranking in the top 15 percentile. His inherent strength is further highlighted by his excellent performance in the Farmers Carry and Sled Push sections.
Despite his strength, his Total Running Time was slower than the average, indicating that Paul could better his performance by focusing on improving his running capacity. He started off the race at a high pace, but gradually slowed down as the race progressed, indicating a need for better pacing strategy and stamina.
Going forward, Paul should focus on pacing himself better throughout the race. Starting off at a high pace and slowing down towards the end signifies potential issues with stamina and pacing. A more consistent pace throughout the race could help improve his overall time. Additionally, focusing on swift transitions between exercises can help reduce the Roxzone time. He should also consider simulating race conditions in his training to better prepare for the actual race, especially running scenarios post specific exercises.
