ATHLETE ON THE SPOTLIGHT JACKY

This month, we’re highlighting one of our incredible Stage 12 athletes whose journey reminds us what dedication, courage, and consistency really look like. From stepping into Hyrox with zero experience to finding strength in community, her story is a perfect example of what Stage 12 stands for.

Here’s their story in their own words:

“My Hyrox journey was totally unexpected—I signed up for my first solo race just two months before the event, with almost no running experience. 😅

I’ve always struggled with self-image and weight fluctuations, so I started weight training three years ago. After two years, I felt bored and needed a new challenge.

Hyrox changed everything. It brought discipline, focus, and helped me unlock more of my potential while shifting my mindset toward performance. The journey is long, but that’s what makes it exciting.

Joining Stage 12 made a huge difference. The coaches and community supported me on days I felt unmotivated, and no matter your level, you’re always encouraged to grow.

My favorite workouts? Anything with a sled and any exercise I’m bad at—that challenge motivates me to improve. Even if I have a love-hate relationship with running… and maybe a few other things too. 😂”
