Poppy Jones: 1:15 to 1:01 — The Running Secrets Behind a HYROX Pro Solo Win

This week on the podcast, we’re joined by Poppy Jones — Third Space PT and one of the most exciting athletes currently chasing the HYROX dream. Fresh off the racecourse in Manchester, where she clocked a PB of 1:01:18 and took the Solo Pro win, it felt like the perfect time to sit down and have a proper chat.


Poppy opens up about the journey that led to this breakthrough moment — from international netball and burnout, to rebuilding her confidence and finally trusting what she’s capable of on race day.


We dive deep into the running transformation that changed everything: moving from 5:30–5:40/km HYROX run splits, to committing fully to running-focused training. In just 10 months, she dropped her 10K from 46 minutes to 36, ran a sub-18 5K.


We also talk racing nerves vs racing with confidence, the mental side of performance, why Manchester felt so different to London, and what it takes to fully commit to chasing a career as an athlete.


This episode is a brilliant insight into patience, belief, and what can happen when the work finally clicks. Poppy is quietly becoming one to watch — and after this conversation, you’ll understand why.
