HYROX is a global fitness competition that combines running with functional exercises. It’s designed to test overall fitness, pushing participants to run a set distance while completing various workout stations along the way. The format is pretty standard, no matter where you do it—8 kilometers of running with 8 different functional fitness stations scattered throughout. Each station has a specific exercise that participants must perform, like rowing, burpees, sled pushes, or lunges.

It’s a race against time, and the goal is to complete the course as quickly as possible while maintaining form throughout the exercises. It’s popular among people who enjoy endurance training, CrossFit-style workouts, or obstacle courses, but it’s open to anyone who wants to challenge themselves in a fun, competitive way.
