In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast we speak with Brakken Kraker (@brakkenkraker). You may have heard Brakken on the Race Brain podcast, or his Running Public podcast. He is a fantastic athlete who, amongst many other achievements – plenty of which we get to in this episode – has run a 51minute HYROX mens doubles (which he did along with Rich Ryan who has been on this podcast a couple of times). He's also a very knowledgeable coach – especially on the running side - and in this episode we got a lot into the dos and do not's when running training for HYROX. It is a really enjoyable chat with a great guy, and there's tonnes you'll be able to take away from it.

In this week's episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I get to chat with Rich Ryan (@reinforced_running_rich). Rich has featured in 3 of the Elite race majors this season, and in the most recent in Washington D.C. finished 3rd in a time of 58:16, securing himself a spot for the Elite race at the 2024 World Champs. He also holds the men's doubles world record – along with recent podcast guest Pelayo Menendez – in a time of 48:36, and is part of the world record holding men's relay team. In this chat we cover a huge amount including his experiences in the majors this season, how he went from 13th in Vienna to 3rd in Washington in just 3 weeks, his mindset, what he's changed in his training recently, running technique, and lots more. Rich is always great to chat to, he's a really knowledgeable coach and athlete, and I think there's plenty you can take away from this conversation.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
