Mid Way Through 2026. July Check In To Smash Your Goals
Mid-Year Goals, HYROX Prep, and England Football: Onwards and Upwards at CrossFit Shropshire Graham and Alex introduce a new music intro, chat about their mid-year progress, and share updates from CrossFit Shropshire. Alex discusses training for HYROX (including Birmingham and a possible abroad event), adding Pilates, growing gym membership and classes, and finishing a new PT studio for a July launch. They drift into England football talk, including West Ham’s relegation, England beating Mexico 3–2, and jokes about “Three Lions” and “years of hurt.” Graham shares his own progress: dropping from 120kg to 110kg through training three times a week, reducing alcohol, eating better, and lowering cholesterol by one point to 5.26 with a 3.6 ratio.
They preview HYROX in October, a new running club with coach Jenny starting in July, record membership momentum, and a July dragon boat race fundraiser, then offer tips for listeners: start now, start small, build routine, and work with a coach who tailors goals and a plan.
