hybricon games

Kaleb is a tenured Spartan pro athlete, HYROX racer, DEKA athlete, and hybrid competitor - listen to him discuss how he arrived at this competitive level, what appeals to him about hybrid sport, and the pros and cons of being a "larger" competitor (6'3, 210+ lbs). On top of that, Kaleb is an upstanding gent and brilliant sportsman, bringing a ferocity and amicability to the start line that few people balance just right.

Kaleb discusses how he gets into the right mindset for competition, how that's evolved during his time as a competitor and after his time in the military, and how his network of fellow competitors keep him focused. Hybricon 2024 sounds like it's going to be lit, and he's already signed up for Rally in the Valley 2024.

Coming right off of crewing Kris Rugloski at the World's Toughest Mudder 2023, Kaleb discusses the planning and challenges that come with a 24 hour race (plan A needs a plan B, C, D, E, F, and Z), and the ways he's prepping for this DEKA and Hyrox Season alongside Hunter McIntyre.

Sit down (although I'm pretty sure he stood the whole time) with Phillip Muscarella, the champion of the 2023 Hybricon Games. 

• Dealing with competition anxiety, and operating from a place of gratitude and joy
• Coming into "hybrid" from a CrossFit background
• Differences and improvements from last year at the Hybricon Games
• Creating a balanced hybrid competition ("you can't call this a strength event if there's running in it") and seeing "creator bias" in event selection
• Bettering yourself and finding your fullest potential using sport
• The way a competition plays out doesn't represent you, or your total value, as a person. 
• "How big and strong can you be, but how fast can you still move?" Pushing the boundaries on both sides of the coin to find true human capability.
• The value of competition for development and growth

Listen in and leave your thoughts!
