The Everyday Hero Doing 10 HYROX Races, In 1 Weekend, For 1 Massive Cause.
What drives an everyday bloke to take on 10 HYROX races in a single weekend?
In this episode, Damian sits down with Eliot — a full-time carpenter, husband, and volunteer — who's gearing up to do something extraordinary: compete in 10 HYROX events across 3 days at HYROX Sydney. But this isn’t just about fitness. It’s about purpose.
Eliot shares his powerful transformation story — from late nights and party habits to becoming a disciplined athlete — and how a simple 90-day challenge changed the course of his life. We dive into his physical prep, mental battles, and the heartfelt reason behind the challenge: raising money for Achilles Sydney, a charity that supports visually impaired and disabled runners.
This episode is real, raw, and incredibly relatable — it’s a reminder that the only thing separating most people from greatness is belief and action.
