  • Insight on Fitness Racing & world events done with some serious charm!

    I love how honest Dave and Bethany are on important topics. They’re always entertaining and insightful. I’ve been a big fan of them both for a long time. I was lucky enough to meet Dave this past weekend at Deka volunteering; he is truly a man who walks the talk.

  • Dave Claxton’s Return to Podcasting

    He’s back and has already started lessening my blind spots when it comes to both functional fitness events like Hyrox, and awareness to the incredible Canadian athletes!

    He does this with the help of his cohost Bethany McChesney who is a professional OCR athlete and gym owner!

    I’m subscribed and looking forward to learning more from this new dynamic duo!

Q: What are your thoughts on making mixed doubles part of the Elite 15, and how might that change the strategy?
The guest expresses support for integrating mixed doubles into the Elite 15, but acknowledges logistical and fairness concerns about how races align and stations are allocated; he suggests open-format pairing or tempo-based rules as possible solutions to avoid mismatches and maintain competitive integrity.
OFX EPISODE 297: HYROX AG WORLD CHAMP RYAN DOUGLAS.
Q: How did the solo race go for you in terms of splits and plan, especially against strong competitors in your heat?
He describes going out hot with a plan to race against a specific rival, learned from the heat that pacing and staying with a strong counter-pace pushed him to adjust his approach, and emphasizes the need to be patient and execute his own best race even if that means a slower initial start.

Q: What happened with the people in the feed in the line on the 4x400 relay?
They stepped outside of the transition zone before making the baton handoff, leading to an automatic disqualification.

Q: What's on the menu for dinner?
