The format
A HYROX race is eight 1-kilometer runs, each one followed by a single functional workout station. You run, you work, you run again — eight times through, in the same order, at every race in the world.
That consistency is the whole point. Unlike a race where the workout is a surprise, you can rehearse a HYROX from start to finish months before you enter one.
The eight stations
In order, every race:
- • SkiErg — 1,000m
- • Sled Push — 50m
- • Sled Pull — 50m
- • Burpee Broad Jumps — 80m
- • Rowing — 1,000m
- • Farmer's Carry — 200m
- • Sandbag Lunges — 100m
- • Wall Balls
Who it's for
Runners who want strength. Lifters who want an engine. People who have never raced anything and want a finish line to train toward. Divisions exist for open, pro, doubles and relay, so the entry point is genuinely wide.
You also don't have to race at all. HYROX-style training builds cardiovascular endurance, functional strength and work capacity whether or not you ever register.
