Anyone else doing it?

Doubles M45-49 here, finished in 1:23. Same time as two years ago almost to the second (older but not slower?). Had hopes of cracking 1:20 but so it goes.

The new wall ball counters ate our lunch.

I did solo yesterday (also 45) and for my first it was good enough. Wall balls ate my lunch as well, I entered at 1:17 and 11 minutes of wall ball was more pain cave than I bargained for to finish.
I practiced them a fair amount but with a rigid medicine ball, I couldn't aim the soft one well and had 28 no scored.
Time to psych myself up for Houston in March.

Great time. Clean those wall balls up and you're in great shape.

I thought about doing this until I saw 80 meters of burpee/broad jumps and I was all like....

Half my gym group was there it seems like. I think we sent about 20 people. I'm waiting for Houston

It felt like half DFW was there. My wife raced Sunday morning. Spectator check in line was S shaped - went up and down the full length of the outdoor corridor literally three times.

What all do you do in a Hyrox race? Is it basically a Crossfit workout?

It's basically an 8k run. After each 1k you do an exercise.

Why would anyone want to do this??

This just sounds like punishment, not anything I or anyone else would want to do for fun.
