| SEATTLE, Wash., (February 12, 2026) – Endurance athlete, bowhunter, author, and nationally recognized podcast personality Cameron Hanes has been named the official Grand Marshal for Round 6 of the Monster Energy SMX World ChampionshipTM taking place this Saturday, February 14 at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington.
Hanes, best known as a world-renowned bowhunter, is equally famous for his endurance feats, book authorship, and Keep Hammering Collective podcast. Originally hailing from the Pacific Northwest and Eugene, Oregon specifically, Hanes is no stranger to Seattle and a perfect fit for welcoming Supercross back to Seattle on the heels of the Seahawks’ Super Bowl LX victory. |
