I’m stressed and want a sub-1 hour HYROX race

I'm stressed out. Before this challenge, I didn't care about my race score. But now I feel like I should perform well. I want to break the internet and make my sponsors proud. So I've set a new goal for myself: sub-1 hour. That's top 2% in HYROX Open. It's my first race, but I've been training for 6 months, and I think I could do sub-65. Sub-60 is very ambitious, but not impossible. That's why I'm stressed. At night, I wake up thinking about how I'll perform. I walk the streets of Istanbul thinking about the split times. This race will be a war. I'll give everything I've got to make it happen.

Marc Lou@marclou · Sep 8, 2026I'm selling my body. On September 19th, I'm competing in my first HYROX race in Turkey. You can advertise your startup on 10 of my muscles: - Your website is listed on hyrox.marclou.com - Your logo will be tattooed on my body on race day - I'll share it on my YouTube and X accounts Bidding starts at $1,000. Each takeover doubles the price: $1,000 → $2,000 → $4,000. If outbid, you’re refunded minus the Stripe fee. Bidding closes on Thursday the 10th at midnight UTC (in 2 days), so I have enough time to print the winning tattoos. → Sponsor my body: hyrox.marclou.com
