Hunter McIntyre is an American professional athlete and fitness trainer who has established himself as a dominant force in the world of obstacle course racing and now HYROX.
Hunter was a Defender on CBS's Million Dollar Mile produced by Lebron James, and broke the Murph Challenge world record, raising thousands of dollars for charity along the way. Hunter also competed at the 2019 CrossFit Games after securing a Wild Card invite to compete amongst the best of the best in a sport he had never competed in before.
Since 2020, Hunter's efforts have mainly been directed at the fast emerging sport of HYROX. He is a 3x World Champion and is currently on a quest to reclaim his throne. Hunter holds the HYROX world record in the Men's Pro division with a time of 53:22 - effectively making him "The Fastest Man in Fitness".
Megan (Meg) Jacoby is an American professional hybrid racing athlete and the current HYROX World Champion.
Meg was always an athlete, having earned accolades in track and field both at high school and collegiate level. She studied at University of Binghamton where she competed as an NCAA Division 1 runner in the 3,000m and 5,000m categories. Meg's story within HYROX is, however, fairly recent, with her doing her first race in 2022 and less than two years later, she became World Champion of the sport. Earlier, she had both become the first woman to break the 60 minute barrier, as well as setting a then world record time of 58:52.
Alongside her quest for athletic glory, Meg is a mom and she credits all her drive and motivation to her daughter Mila, who she wants to set an example for, demonstrating that nothing is impossible if you only work hard enough for it.
Meg has already secured qualification for the HYROX World Championships which will be held in Chicago in June, 2025.
