Beyond the Locker is a podcast with Brendan Pearson and Jack Curtis about endurance sport and the life around it. The “locker” is the hurt locker we all face when training or racing gets tough. Through honest conversations about running, HYROX, setbacks and mindset, we explore what those moments teach us beyond the finish line.

🎙️ Episode 1 of Beyond the Locker
We planned to introduce ourselves. Six seconds in, we were talking about needing a poo on a run. That probably tells you what sort of podcast this is. 😂
Jack and I get into how we found HYROX and ultra running, the sessions and races that have properly tested us, and where the line sits between going all in on training and letting it take over the rest of your life.
There’s an honest chat about family and business, a few opinions on HYROX, and a Glasgow race fuelling story I’d rather not repeat.

Today we are joined by Jon Wynn, a Hyrox Elite Athlete. For many years Jon battled with a serious alcohol & drugs addiction which lent him to spend 7 years in & out of rehab battling the issue. However, now he is nearly 2 years sober & is helping others battle addiction through the form of fitness.
Today we dive into Jon's fitness & special forces background, his battle with addiction, how he keeps himself clean today, as well as all things Hyrox, his training & looking ahead to the North American Championships in Chicago.
