Why Running Technique Matters for Hyrox Athletes

Inefficient strides increase impact.

❌ Poor Pacing

Early burnout due to mismanaged energy.

Every step is braking & increasing impact.

Injury Prevention and Running Technique

Biomechanical Analysis

Advanced video assessment identifies inefficiencies in your running form that lead to energy waste and increased injury risk during Hyrox events.

Corrective Drills

Personalised technique exercises address your specific movement patterns, with 83% of clients reporting significant reduction in recurring injuries.

Progressive Loading

Structured build-up of running volume and intensity prevents the overuse injuries that sideline 40% of Hyrox competitors during training cycles.

What a Running Technique Assessment Reveals

In this short video, I break down a real running technique assessment and identify key inefficiencies: anterior pelvic tilt, over-striding, constant calf engagement, forefoot stepping, and foot compensations. Spotting and correcting these movement patterns can help you become a more efficient HYROX runner—and get faster times.

What HYROX Athletes Are Saying

“Simon is an absolutely awesome running coach. Having been a county level middle distance and cross country runner in my teens, I’ve refocused on running to compete in Hyrox four decades later at the age of 54. Simon’s insight and technical analysis of my running technique, together with practical advice on how to implement subtle but crucial modifications has seen my 5km and 10km benchmark times plummet and my Hyrox 8x1km sustainable race pace improve by almost 30 seconds - worth nearly 4 minutes across the race. I can’t thank Simon enough or recommend him more highly. Whatever your running goals - look no further for technical advice and insight. He’s the man!”
