We’re officially one week out from HYROX Houston… and now it’s time to lock in.

After breaking down HYROX 101 (what it is) and HYROX 201 (how to race it), this episode is all about HYROX 301: Race Week—how to taper smart, manage your mindset, and show up ready to perform.

In this episode, we cover:

• How to approach race week training (and what NOT to do)

• Why you don’t get fitter this week—you get fresher

• A simple race plan to keep you controlled and confident

• Race week checklist: gear, nutrition, hydration & logistics

• Managing nerves and staying focused heading into race day

• What most athletes do wrong in the final week


We also talk about everything happening leading into race weekend, including the BC Fitness HYROX Pep Rally and our HYROX Houston Shakeout Run—two opportunities to connect, prepare, and build confidence before you step on the floor.


Whether it’s your first HYROX or you’re chasing a PR, this episode will help you stay grounded, stay ready, and finish strong.


The work is done. Now it’s time to show up.
