  • Sarah!

    Really wonderful interview with Sarah Holden. She is an exceptional young lady and athlete. It’s extraordinary that she has overcome all the blood clots to return to such an advanced level of athleticism.. I was a bit surprised you didn’t ask how she got the blood clots to begin with. Once she’s off the blood thinners as she concerned that the blood clots will return.? Now that she has gone through many months of this journey I would’ve liked to have heard her response. Thank you for having her ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Filter is off in HYROX - Michael Molloy and Mark Ellery
Q: Where did you see yourself fitting in the market and what problem were you solving with The Filter Is Off?
We aimed to address a wide range of Hyrox-related topics, from training and gear to event experience and the psychology of athletes, offering diverse perspectives rather than a single-niche focus.
Future Global Evolution of DEKA FIT - Emily LeRoux
Q: Let's talk about the EMEA champs. Can you clarify the qualification process?
No, the EMEA championships are non-qualifier for most entrants; anyone can enter any category except elite racing, and elites must have raced in an elite event in the last 12 months. There are specific rules about age-group and elite eligibility, with wild-card allowances strictly limited for exceptional circumstances.
Balancing Work & Life with Elite HYROX Performance – Ronan Lindsay
Q: How do you balance family, work, and elite training, and what role does recovery play?
He highlighted a strong, supportive family, a tight inner circle, and a shift toward smarter recovery with HRV monitoring and a coach to guide training, acknowledging it's a continual, imperfect process but essential to maintaining high-level performance.
Balancing Work & Life with Elite HYROX Performance – Ronan Lindsay
Q: What changes did you make to your training to break into the mid- to low-56 minute pro range?
He credited building a bigger aerobic base, disciplined zone training, and data-driven adjustments with his coach, along with targeted work on sled pushes/pulls and wall balls to improve endurance and race execution.
Balancing Work & Life with Elite HYROX Performance – Ronan Lindsay
Q: What is your Hyrox history and how did you get started in the sport?
Ronan explained his switch from Gaelic football to Hyrox after a failed London race where he learned to rely on self-improvement, focusing on gradual volume increases and technique development to raise his performance.
