Episode 25- Roisin Egan

In this episode of The Emerald Athlete Podcast, I’m joined by Hyrox athlete Róisín Egan.

We discuss the difference between competing in Hyrox Pro and the standard division, and what it really takes to perform at a high level in both. Róisín shares practical tips for those looking to get involved, including how to approach key movements like wall balls and how to structure your training effectively.

We also chat about the Hyrox race experience, the different venues around the world, and how preparation can vary depending on the environment. Róisín gives insight into her training plan and mindset, as well as the challenges of competing at a high level while balancing a full-time teaching career.

Finally, we touch on where Hyrox is heading, what changes could improve the competition, and why the sport continues to grow in popularity.
