As HYROX is a race for everybody, we have tried to make the exercises as
accessible as possible, so although there are basic movement standards, it
should be easily executed.
The train section of the website provides you with all the necessary information. Whether you want to train at home, at your local HYROX Partner Gym or through our digital Fitness Partner, Fiit, there are several ways to get HYROX ready.
In order to qualify for the HYROX World Championships, you need to participate in any of our 40+ races. The number of qualifying slots are different at each race and are based on your age group and your division. If you place within one of these allocated spots in your age group and division, you will receive an invitation via newsletter and have up to 48 hours to claim your slot before it is allocated to the next competitor. Please note that there are no world qualification spots for the HYROX Relay. At our last HYROX World Championships in Las Vegas in 2022, there were over 1.200 participants from 21 countries.

Your start time will be emailed to you a week prior to the event so make sure you keep an eye out. You will also receive the Athlete Guide with all the official and practical information needed, specific to each venue and race. Each division has its own general start time slot, which is communicated earlier to give you an indication of when your start time will roughly be. It is recommended that you arrive 90 minutes before your start time in order to allow enough time to check-in and warm up.
This will depend on your fitness level. The average HYROX finisher time last season was 1H:32M. But the race has no time cap, there were finishers taking 3 hours whilst Hunter Mcintyre and Lauren Weeks hold the HYROX World Record in 55 and 63 minutes respectively.
Spectators are absolutely welcome and nothing greater than racing in front of your friends and family. Spectator tickets can be purchased online in the same section as where you register for your HYROX race.
