In this week's episode we chat with Emilio Aguayo (@aguayotri).

Emilio is a former pro triathlete from Spain who’s quickly become one of the fastest names in HYROX — going sub-60 multiple times and recently clocking one of the top times ever in the Pro division.

In this episode, we dive into:

⏱️ Why he left triathlon (despite reaching the Ironman World Champs)
🧒 How HYROX has helped him be a better dad
⚖️ His thoughts on weight, fuelling, and training at a natural weight
🏋️‍♂️ The switch to strength work after never lifting as a triathlete
🧠 Race mindset, recovery habits, and running training
🔥 His honest take on fast courses, time-based qualification, and what’s next
