Overall Performance
Ben Jones delivered a commendable performance at the 2024 Amsterdam Hyrox event, achieving an overall rank of 1872 out of 3118 athletes, placing him in the top 60%. In his age group (40-44), he ranked 245 out of 422, positioning him in the top 58%. His overall race time was 01:42:00, with a total running time of 00:49:05, which was 01:07 faster than the average, indicating a strong running performance. This suggests that Ben has a more runner-oriented profile and should focus on enhancing his strength exercises to improve overall performance.
Analyzing his pacing, Ben started exceptionally fast in the initial segments, particularly in Running 1, where he was significantly faster than average. However, this initial pace wasn't sustained, as his performance tapered in later segments, especially in the strength-based exercises and the final running segments. This suggests that while he excels in running, there is room for improvement in his strength endurance and pacing strategy to maintain energy throughout the race.
Segments to Improve
-
Wall Balls: Ben was 02:29 slower than average, ranking in the 91st percentile. To improve, he should focus on enhancing his leg and shoulder endurance. Recommended exercises include:
