Overall Performance

Simon Thomson delivered a commendable performance in the 2024 Manchester HYROX race. Simon's total running time was 33 seconds slower than the average, indicating that his running capabilities could benefit from additional training. However, he excelled in strength-related activities such as the Ski Erg and Sled Push, completing these segments faster than the average participant. His fastest running lap was 6 minutes and 29 seconds, hinting at his potential for speed. Simon's overall rank of 1144 places him in the top 95% of all participants, and within his age group (45-49), he ranked 72, positioning him in the top 90%. Despite some inconsistencies in pacing, particularly in the later stages of the race, Simon demonstrated a hybrid profile, showing proficiency in both running and strength exercises.

Segments to Improve

  • Burpees Broad Jump: Simon was significantly slower than average in this segment. To improve his performance, he can incorporate burpee broad jump drills into his training routine. These drills should focus on improving explosive strength and cardio endurance. Plyometric exercises such as box jumps, squat jumps, and power skips will also help.
  • Sandbag Lunges: This was another segment where Simon was slower than average. He should focus on building his lower body strength and muscular endurance. Incorporating lunges, squats, and deadlifts with weights into his training routine can help improve his performance in this area.
  • Running: While Simon's running was not particularly weak, his total running time was slower than average. He should focus on improving his running endurance and speed. Introducing interval training, incorporating hill sprints, and practicing tempo runs will enhance his running performance.

Race Strategies

Simon should focus on improving his pacing during races. Starting off too fast may have caused him to tire quickly and perform slower in later segments. He should aim to maintain a consistent pace throughout the race. Simon should also focus on his transitions in the Roxzone. Although he was faster than average, there is still room for improvement. Practicing quick transitions during training can help reduce his time in this area. Finally, given his strength in strength-related exercises, Simon should leverage this during the race. He could potentially gain time in these segments to offset any time lost during the running segments.
