Is Charley Hull risking too much for redemption, or is her determination what makes her a true champion?

While the agony of defeat still lingers, Charley Hull chooses to face her fears head-on. The 28-year-old is still reeling from the disappointment of a T-20 finish at the AIG Women’s Open. It could be possible that her well-documented neck injury and degenerative arthritis in her shoulder hindered her performance at the final major. But amidst the ups and downs, she refused to let heartbreak define her. And now, that passion is about to take her on a daring new quest. She’s fueled by a constant that has remained by her side and helped her become a better version of herself—fitness.

Charley Hull shared her future plans with infectious enthusiasm on social media. Hours ago, she announced via an Instagram story that she’s set to take part in the Hyrox fitness competition in Corby. And in this thrilling adventure happening on September 28th, she’ll be joined by her nephew and brother-in-law. “Buzzing to compete in this Hyrox event in Corby! Going to be my first one. My nephew and both brother-in-laws are also competing. It’s a family affair,” wrote Hull in her story. 

However, waiting for her will be a grueling test of endurance and strength, as the Hyrox fitness competition pushes athletes to their limits. It combines 8 km of running with eight functional workout stations. A blend of alternates between pounding the pavement. That also requires pushing through exercises demanding every ounce of power and agility.
