WHAT WENT WRONG?? - Hyrox South Korea Race Recap | The Run Down - EP. 6

In this episode of The Run Down, I break down my experience racing in South Korea — from the high hopes to the hard truths. I walk through the entire race, share my data comparisons, and unpack what might’ve gone wrong: from travel fatigue to taper strategy, to just… not my day. This is the full debrief. The behind-the-scenes. The unfiltered recap. If you've ever had a race blow up on you, you'll relate to this one. 🎧 Filmed live in Incheon, now adapted for the pod. 💥 Topics: race strategy, mindset mid-meltdown, taper mistakes, and lessons for Chicago. Mark my words...I will get that sub 60. Today just wasn't that day.

Rescued a Kangaroo, Sh*t my pants and Overshared (again)

This episode is all over the place in the best kind of way. I kick things off solo with a bit of a training update, a kangaroo rescue mission, and some honest thoughts around identity, social media, and why I cut a chunk out of last week’s episode. Then Amy jumps in and things get loose. We chat relationship milestones (farting with mouth tape on made the list), run through some weirdly specific Q&A, talk about what it’s like trying to balance work, training, and time together — and there are plenty of laughs along the way. Appreciate you being here. If you’re into it, let me know what you think of the episode or drop a rating – helps a lot 👊🏼

Train Hard. Talk Less.

I fly solo in this one, recapping my recent Deka Strong win, training block updates, and the surprising muscular grind of Zone 2. I dive into the psychology of performance, why intensity needs balance, and how cutting out gossip has completely shifted my perspective. A bit of a ramble, a lot of real talk.

Relationships Don't Come with Rulebooks

In this raw, real, and refreshingly honest episode, I sit down with my partner Amy for an open chat about the way they navigate our relationship — a relationship that doesn’t always follow society’s "rules." From balancing goals and personal space to supporting each other through the heavy stuff, this episode dives into how we make it all work. It’s heartfelt, hilarious, and at times, pretty damn deep. We unpack everything from triggers and communication to running a 10K for the first time and what it really means to be a supportive partner (spoiler: it’s not always doing what the other person wants). Whether you're in a relationship, single, or just love hearing people get real — this one’s for you.

Optimising training through tracking recovery

In this episode I sat down to talk about how I track my recovery through my resting Heart rate. I believe it has been the pivotal change that has allowed me to get more out of my training on a weekly basis. As I am able to quickly identify when I need to either dial back or am able to dial up my training volume/intensity.

I raced @HYROX_OFFICIAL Auckland in the Mens Solo Pro category and came away with the Age group win and 4th overall. I' in a base build with my Hyrox training at the moment. So I went into the race with no expectations for how it would go. Mainly because I knew id be carrying a bit of fatigue into the race. So when I finished I was a bit surprised at the results. There are so many factors that play into how we show up and actually race on race day. Some of them are predictable and controlable. Others are completely out of our control. Heres how the recap plays out: 0:00 - 0:30 Introduction 0:30 - 2:00 Lead up to Auckland Hyrox 2:00 - 3:20 Race day 3:20 - 3:55 Pre Race 3:55 - 7:50 The race 7:50 - 10:07 The aftermath of the race + Racing mixed doubles on day 2 🔗 STAY CONNECTED & TRAIN WITH ME 💪🏻 Train With Me Join my exact training programs & level up your fitness: 👉🏼 https://app.fitr.training/t/Buildperformancecoaching/ 📲 Follow Me on Socials 📸 Instagram: @anthony__dipaolo 🎥 TikTok: @anthony__dipaolo 📧 Coaching Inquiries: coaching@anthdipaolo.com 🤝🏼 SPONSORS & PARTNERS 🧪 Hyperbolic Sleep – My go-to for recovery & better sleep 👉🏼 hyperbolicsleep.com Use code: ANTH for 15% off 💪🏻 Myprotein – Fueling my supplement stack 👉🏼 https://prf.hn/l/mV01Ekq/ for 40–50% off 🍬 Push Gummies – Creatine that actually tastes good 👉🏼 pushgummies.com/ANTHONY15 Use code: ANTHONY15 for 15% off
