CALM & CONQUER: Our Hyrox Challenge for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably), a charity dedicated to preventing suicide, supporting people in crisis, and giving hope to those who feel alone.

This year, Elvis, Annika, Gary, Jon and Jiten are taking on a huge challenge and for some it's the first time! We’re stepping into the world of Hyrox, a global fitness race known for pushing every limit: strength, endurance, resilience, and teamwork.

But this isn’t just about competing. It’s about making every step, every rep, and every moment of effort count for something bigger.

Meet the Team & Our Why

Each of us brings something unique to this challenge, strengths, stories, motivations, and heart. Together, we form a team with purpose.

Elvis is our veteran athlete, having completed multiple Hyrox events. He brings focus, discipline, and the steady energy of someone who knows how to dig deep.

Annika recently completed the Hyrox Women’s Pro Doubles in Abu Dhabi in 2025, pushing through injury, setbacks, and travel to show what true resilience looks like.

Gary took on Hyrox Ireland in 2025 with his son, proving that fitness, courage, and teamwork can be a family legacy.

Jiten brings his banter and passion for helping men speak up about mental health, turning every training session into a reminder that vulnerability is strength.

Jon contributes his experience and enthusiasm for sports challenges, always pushing the team to stay motivated and reminding us why we signed up in the first place.

Each of us is running for CALM, but all of us are running for something personal too. Because mental health matters, to all of us, and to the people we love.

Our Commitment

Over the next 5 months, we’ll be training, sweating, shouting encouragement, and pushing through every mental and physical barrier, not only for the challenge, but for the cause.

We’re not aiming for perfection. We’re aiming for impact.

Every kilometre we run, every wall ball, every sled push, and every moment of self-doubt overcome… it all means something when we’re doing it for CALM.

Why CALM?

Mental health struggles often happen behind closed doors, quietly and invisibly. CALM is there to break that silence, offering lifesaving support through their helpline, campaigns, and community work.

CALM makes sure people have that support when they need it most.

Just like Hyrox, life can feel like a tough circuit, one station after another. You push, you struggle, you slow down, you pick yourself back up. Sometimes you need a teammate, or even a stranger, to help get you through the next rep.

How You Can Support

If you’d like to stand with us and stand with CALM, you can:

Donate — Every contribution supports someone who needs help right now.

Share — Spreading awareness could reach someone who needs this message.

Check in — Ask someone how they’re doing. Really doing. It can make a world of difference.

Together, We Can Make Noise for CALM

Hyrox is a race, but this journey is about so much more.

It’s about community. It’s about compassion.

It’s about speaking up, showing up, and standing up for mental health.

Thank you for supporting our team and for standing with CALM.

Let’s CALM & CONQUER together.
