In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast, we chat with Dylan Scott, fresh from becoming the 2026 HYROX World Champion after one of the most dramatic finishes the sport has ever seen
A week after his victory in Stockholm, Dylan reflects on what it actually felt like to finally achieve the goal he'd been chasing for six years, and the mindset that's already driving him towards defending the title.
We also discuss:
* The race strategy behind his World Championship victory
* Why becoming a father has made him a better athlete
* How he trains his burpee broad jumps, sled push and other key HYROX stations
