From HYROX Volunteer to Elite 15: Emilie Dahmen’s Rise
Rox Lyfe - The HYROX PodcastAbout this episode
In this week's episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast I’m chatting with Emilie Dahmen. Just a year ago Emilie was volunteering at a HYROX race to earn study credits, and now she’s a Nike athlete competing with the best in the world. She’s quickly gone from complete beginner to finishing 6th in the Elite 15 in Chicago! We talk about the whirlwind of her first season, her sporting background, her mindset and how she’s approaching training at this level. It was a fun, open chat with one of HYROX’s most exciting new athletes and brightest stars, and I think you’ll really enjoy it. 🔗 Subscribe for more episodes 💥 Supporters of this Episode 🏅 MyProtein – Affordable, high-quality supplements to support your HYROX training.
