How Gaz McNamara plans to complete an Ironman and 2 Hyrox events in under 17 hours

What do you get when you combine a full-distance Ironman with not one but two full Hyrox events? A self-created endurance monster called TRIROX—and that’s exactly what Gaz McNamara is taking on to raise funds for the military charity REORG. (BREAKING NEWS - The event date is now set as 20 Sept, 2025)

Gaz, a former military PTI and triathlete with two decades of experience in physical training and rehabilitation, shares the why, how, and what was I thinking? behind this uniquely brutal challenge. Expect a mix of inspiration, realism, and practical wisdom for anyone looking to push their limits—physically and mentally.
