You will coach individuals and groups, tailoring sessions for beginners and podium contenders alike while building a supportive community around the sport.

Qualifications

• Excellent communication and a coaching presence people trust and enjoy.
• CPR/AED certification (or willingness to obtain).

Responsibilities

• Design and program Hyrox-specific training blocks — compromised running, station efficiency, transitions, and race-day pacing.
• Coach individual athletes and small groups through the full demands of the race: 8 x 1km runs plus SkiErg, sled push/pull, burpee broad jumps, rowing, farmers carry, sandbag lunges, and wall balls.
• Prep athletes for Open, Pro, Doubles, and Relay divisions across all experience levels.
• Build technique, work capacity, and the mental grit to hold pace under fatigue.
