Annie Emilsson: From CrossFit - Hyrox. How One Conversation Changed Everything.

After years competing in CrossFit, Annie took a chance on HYROX after a coach spotted her potential through physiological testing. Fast forward a few months, and she's already clocked an incredible 57:38, with her sights firmly set on the Elite 15.


In this episode, we chat about her sporting background, why she made the switch from CrossFit, training around recurring shin splints, and how she's built her fitness by spending more time on the SkiErg and RowErg than running.


We also dive into racing strategy, recovery, balancing a full-time job alongside elite competition, and why Annie believes the best part of competing isn't race day—it's the training that gets her there.


A brilliant conversation with one to watch in the sport.
