So you crossed the finish line… now what? In this episode, we tackle the infamous Post Race Hangover—the soreness, the fatigue, and the temptation to do absolutely nothing. James breaks down smart recovery strategies to help you bounce back stronger, including active recovery tips, how to reintroduce intensity, and why proper hydration, nutrition, and reflection can make or break your next training cycle. Whether you crushed your HYROX or barely survived your marathon, this episode will help you recover like a pro—and maybe stop walking like a baby giraffe.
