Team Louisy (Lou Pugh and Lucy Cowan) 40km and HYROX challenge!

Raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support

HYROX Cardiff 2025 · 30 May 2025 to 1 June 2025 ·

HYROX is taking the fitness world by storm, and Macmillan are so excited to be their exclusive charity partner! HYROX is a fitness race for Every Body, no matter your fitness level.

Story

We (Team Louisy) have decided to take on a huge physical challenge over the next 9 weeks in order to raise as much money as possible for MacMillan to support people living with cancer.

As you may or may not be aware Lou is coming towards the end of 20 long months of cancer treatment and we thought what better way to celebrate this than to give something back and to push our bodies to the limit?!

We will each be running 2 10km races this coming month in the warm up to the main event on June 1st where we will be taking part in a HYROX event at the Principality Stadium Cardiff. HYROX combines both running & functional workout stations, where participants run 1km, followed by 1 functional workout station, repeated eight times. These events look extremely tough even for the most experienced 'HYROXer' so it is going to be a genuine challenge for us BUT we are ready to learn the moves, work on our fitness and do our best for this important charity!

There are currently over 3 million people living with cancer in the UK today. It's Macmillan's goal to be there for everyone from the moment of diagnosis, but they can't do this without donations from people like you.

We would be so grateful if you could help us reach my £800 pledge, which could run the Macmillan Support Line phone service for 2 hours.

Thank you!

Lucy and Lou xx
