Five friends, one Hyrox, and a very good cause!

This October, Callum, Jon, Tania, Lindsey, and I are flying to Valencia to compete in our first-ever Hyrox. We're all in our 40s (or close enough!), so naturally, we thought: why not throw ourselves into a high-intensity fitness race in another country?

We’re excited, nervous, slightly creaky—but we're doing it not just to challenge ourselves, but to raise money for Ronald McDonald House.

This amazing charity gives families with seriously ill children a place to stay near hospital—offering a warm bed, a break from the beeping machines, and a moment to breathe. It’s something no one thinks about until they really need it, and for some of our friends, it's been a lifeline.

We’re training hard (and stretching a lot), and every donation, no matter how small, will help us turn this midlife madness into something meaningful.

Thanks for supporting us—and wish our knees luck!

Dan, Callum, Jon, Tania & Lindsey
