Dylan Scott Joins Science in Sport as Global Ambassador and Elite Hybrid Athlete

NEW YORK, Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- World leader in performance nutrition Science in Sport today announces Dylan Scott as its newest global ambassador and member of its elite roster. This move represents a natural progression for an athlete whose meteoric ascent to the top of the hybrid discipline saw him recently crowned HYROX World Champion.

Scott's compelling journey has been shaped by resilience, commitment, and a determination to discover just how far his prodigious talent and drive can take him. Growing up in Ninety Six, South Carolina, it was on the track and in cross country that he first showed his potential as a teenager. A highly promising collegiate running career was hampered by a serious and persistent back injury which threatened to derail his ambitions entirely.

Finally regaining full fitness, his search for a new competitive outlet coincided perfectly with the emergence and rapid rise of HYROX. It was immediately evident that the athlete had found his ideal arena. In this breakthrough year of 2021, he won his very first race in the Pro division, before announcing his arrival emphatically with an impressive sixth place finish in the second World Championships.

Since then, Scott has firmly established himself as one of HYROX's most influential figures, being instrumental in pushing boundaries, driving down times, and spearheading the phenomenal growth of the sport worldwide. His dramatic victory in Stockholm in June confirmed his status at the pinnacle of his chosen field.

This month's clean sweep in Boston, in both Singles and Men's Doubles, further reinforces his current number one ranking in the Elite 15 division. In addition to his World title, his credentials now include a World bronze, two North American titles, and several other major victories. His unrivaled 43 career podium places are testament to exceptional motivation, consistency, and durability. Alongside American records in Pro Singles, Doubles, and Mixed Doubles, he holds the second-ever-fastest Singles time, 52:40, with his sights now firmly set on the world record.

Already an established Nike athlete, Dylan is a natural fit for the Science in Sport stable. Combining his relentlessly progressive mindset with SiS's preeminence in innovation, testing, and expert insight has inspiring implications for potential gains in HYROX performance. As the sport grows boldly at all levels and times continue to fall, the role of nutrition, in both competition and training, moves front and center. The science of preparation, fueling, hydration, and recovery is becoming increasingly important. This is a significant collaboration which will help redefine what's possible in HYROX.

Working closely with the brand's science and product development teams, Scott will bring his vast HYROX experience to help inform the next steps in performance nutrition and fueling education. He will also contribute to the wider knowledge-sharing of the brand's elite athlete community, helping translate the demands of hybrid training and competition into practical insights for competitors at all levels.

Dylan recognizes the significance of the moment:

"Being a part of the Science in Sport team will undoubtedly bolster my potential as a competitor. I'm thrilled with this opportunity to share my journey with the number one sports nutrition brand and its roster of great athletes. They have shown faith in my future; partnering with their world-class resources only makes that future brighter.

In my ambition to continue competing at the very top of the sport, I'm focused on continually finding ways to make my best even better. Having an ally that's as committed to that goal as I am, with the scientific expertise to back it up, gives me real confidence. Heading into the 2027 season, I'm really looking forward to exploring what we can achieve together."

Dan Lampard, CCOO at Science in Sport, shares this enthusiasm:

"Aligning with Dylan represents an exciting new direction for Science in Sport. With its unique combination of running, strength, concentration, and high-intensity effort, HYROX demands a huge amount from both body and mind. There's a meaningful opportunity here to help athletes at all levels better understand their nutritional needs and bring greater precision to how they prepare, fuel, and recover.

Dylan's dedication to applying the latest scientific advancements to his search for constant improvement makes him the perfect addition to our team. As we continue to expand in the US, partnering with an American at the very forefront of hybrid racing demonstrates our wholehearted commitment to this community, from elite to amateur. We're intent on investing in its athletes, while bringing our performance nutrition expertise to all HYROXers pursuing their individual goals."

This key collaboration comes as Science in Sport continues to build its presence in the US, a key growth market for the brand. It also firmly underlines its position as the leading performance nutrition brand across high-intensity and hybrid sports, making elite-level products and insight accessible to the entire HYROX community.
