WEEK 2: THE WEEK THE BARS GOT HEAVIER ποΈββοΈβοΈ
Week 1, the entire field of 52 hit two barbell PBs.
Week 2? Fourteen. π€
It was testing week at C3 Training Drummoyne and the community SENT IT. Everyone came in to set a new level of strength for themselves.
112.5kg deadlift. 110kg Γ 2 Bench Press. 106kg Γ 2 Bench Press. 104kg deadlift. 88kg Γ 2 on the bench. This stopped being about ticking boxes and became about moving weight.
π WHERE WE STAND AFTER 2 WEEKS
π House of Dragons β 62.35 (1,060 points)
πΊ The Wolfpack β 45.74 (869 points)
π¦ House of Lions β 45.31 (725 points)
π DRAGONS are running away with it. 15 of 17 members have now banked their floor bonus, and they hold 1st, 2nd, 3rd AND 4th place individually.
Their Community pillar jumped +29 this week the biggest single move by any House. Ruthless.
πΊ WOLFPACK logged more claims than anyone this week (85) and were the ONLY House where every single member scored. 100% participation. The habits are locked in now they just need to get back on the grind and attack the Deeds of Greatness as a team. Theyβve claimed one Ball Breaker. The other two Houses have six each. π
π¦ LIONS have come from nowhere. Their Feats of Strength went from 36 to 88. A +144% swing, the biggest pillar jump anyone has managed in this challenge. They were a distant third last week. Theyβre knocking on secondβs door now.
βοΈ Aurora Pelizzari takes over as MOST VALOROUS on 55 Valor points
π Tamsin Cornes still leads overall on 94 points including Deeds Of Greatness
π₯ Gigi Pelizzari was the biggest improver in the challenge. 15 points to 33 in seven days.
πͺ Steven Angelakos doubled his own score, 17 to 34.
π₯ And nobody!! not one of the 52 has claimed IRON GRIP yet. Two weeks in. Whoever claims it first will be forever know as βTHE CLAWβ ππππ€π½π€π½
Nothing is decided. Four weeks left. βοΈβοΈ

Kellie May kelliemay70 1st Place AG Womenβs Solo Division, Perth Hyrox HYROX Australia & New Zealand ππππ
Kellie is the personification of the words: Hard Work, Consistency, Dedication, Will Power & Unshakeable Belief β€οΈβπ₯β€οΈβπ₯β€οΈβπ₯β€οΈβπ₯
There are a lot of people who train to compete at Hyrox just to show up on the day at their absolute best and leave their heart and soul out on the floor. As long as you can do that, thatβs winning π₯π
This crazy competition has exploded onto the world stage, and we celebrate everyone who puts their hand up at that start line and goes all out to see where they stand in fitness and mental fortitude π€π«±πΌβπ«²πΎππΎ
And sometimes, something truly special happens. Sometimes weβre lucky enough to watch one of our very own put their hand up for a mammoth task and take on Hyrox all by themselves. To lock into the pain cave with every rep, every metre and every second resting completely on your own shoulders to carry until you finish.
And after all that is said and done, the numbers get checked and we realise weβve had a world-class athlete training quietly in the corner this whole time with nothing more than a smile and the quiet confidence that sheβd shock the world.
1:20:58. 1st in her age group. Top 25.7% of the entire field. In her very first solo race π€―
We are so proud of you, Kellie β€οΈβπ₯

πΊ THE WOLFPACK WEEK ONE πΊ
The most Valor scored by any House in the challenge. 278 points. π€
116 claims, more than anyone. 18 of 19 on the board. And the best median score in the challenge, which means the Wolfpack isnβt carried by a couple of big numbers.
Where they lead:
π₯ Feats of Strength 89 points, top of the challenge.
π€ Community Builder 68 points, top of the challenge. Twenty-seven reviews written by this House.
π΄ Grit 72 points. Seven went 20km on the bike erg, twelve cracked 15,000 steps in a day, ten held an 11k daily average all week.
π Megan Carrabott 35 points. A barbell PB (one of only TWO in the entire challenge), a Pilgrimage, the plank, 15k steps. Complete week.
πΊ Ruth Taylor 29 points. Plank, Bulgarians, Pecks of Doom, 20KM bike erg AND Run Club. Refused to skip a category.
πͺ Kim Becherand 24 points. Plank, Bulgarians, bike erg and trained with someone new.
Honourable mentions: Julia Huxley 23, Bernie Armistead 22, Tara Canin 22 with a Pilgrimage banked.
The gap will close with some Deeds of Greatness to complete. Marathon Effort, Iron Grip and Ball Breaker are all still sitting there untouched by this House.

π MEMBER OF THE MONTH: ESTHER π
Our O.G. O.G. member! π₯Ήπ€
It honestly wouldnβt be the same without Estherβs presence at the earliest class of the day.
After nearly 9 years with us, sheβs become such a special part of our community β and WOW, what a transformation since she first joined! ππΌ
Esther is the definition of consistency, showing up for both classes and PT sessions, always putting in the work, and somehow still finding time to look after everyone around her.
And letβs not forget the enormous number of Rokeby protein shakes she brings usβ¦ ππ₯€ You know how to keep the team happy!
Esther, this is so well deserved. Weβre incredibly grateful to have had you with us for all these years and couldnβt be happier to see you as our Member of the Month! π
