Hyrox comprises of 8km of running with eight exercise stations in between.

Competitors endure 1km on a standing ski machine, 50m sled push, 50m sled pull, 80m burpee jumps, 1km indoor rowing, 200m kettlebell carry, 100m sandbag lunges, and to finish, 100 throws and catches of a medicine ball.

“I’ve always been involved in sport in my whole life really,” Stockley said.

“I was a competitive swimmer and runner from a young age.

“When I went to university I enjoyed a lot of hockey but after that I got into a bit of CrossFit, so I’ve sort of done everything.

“With CrossFit I enjoyed the Olympic lifting but it compromised my running quite a bit and that’s when I saw Hyrox as this big fitness event and thought I’d like to give that a go.”
