After the Beijing storm, Wietrzyk returns and wins the Hyrox opener in Hamburg

Joanna Wietrzyk returned on Friday and won the Hyrox season opener in Hamburg, around seven weeks after the Beijing episode, when she was allowed to continue despite a condition that had become a hygiene risk. The Australian world record holder clocked 56:10.21; Lauren Weeks was second and Vivian Tafuto third.

Joanna Wietrzyk voltou à competição nesta sexta-feira e venceu a primeira prova da Hyrox da nova temporada em Hamburgo, cerca de sete semanas depois do evento de Pequim que a transformou em polêmica.

A australiana, recordista mundial na categoria individual, liderou o grupo Elite 15 por boa parte da prova e marcou 56:10.21. Lauren Weeks, dos Estados Unidos, foi segunda com 56:24.37, e Vivian Tafuto, também americana, terceira com 57:55.34.

Em Pequim, em setembro, ela teve permissão para completar e vencer a prova mesmo com uma condição que havia se tornado um risco de higiene para quem compartilhava os equipamentos, e abriu mão dos pontos depois. A Hyrox pediu desculpas mais tarde, com o cofundador Moritz Fürste admitindo que os organizadores “cometeram um erro ao não reagir imediatamente durante a prova”, e ganhou poderes para retirar um atleta cujo estado ameace o bem-estar dos outros ou contamine o percurso.

Wietrzyk disse que a repercussão foi “difícil” e “muito confrontadora”. “Sinto muito, muito mesmo, por todos que afetei, sejam espectadores ou participantes naquele piso de prova, pela minha decisão de continuar correndo”, disse. “Tendo esse tempo para refletir, realmente aprendi muito com a situação.”

A Hyrox começou na Alemanha em 2017 e mistura um quilômetro de corrida com estações como empurrar trenó, burpee e avanços com saco de areia. Depois de Hamburgo, o calendário 2026-27 segue para Londres, Bangkok, Las Vegas e Lyon.
