One week after the marathon, which was not the smartest piece of scheduling I have ever done, I raced HYROX Ottawa doubles with my dad. He is 65.
We had been building to this for about a year — super cardio Sundays, every week, the two of us. That is the part I would put on the wall, not the time. A year of a 65-year-old showing up every Sunday to get ready for a thing most people half his age will not sign up for.
1:37:47. He was unbelievable. Easily the best day of racing I had all year, and the marathon was seven days earlier, so I say that with full knowledge of the competition.
