Simplicity & inclusivity
From a single race launched in Hamburg in 2017, Christian Toetzke and Moritz Fürst have catapulted Hyrox into a global phenomenon, where the 24/25 season will see 84 races, 25 different countries & over 250,000 competitors.
We were joined by 120 of them for our first full Hyrox Simulation at SW1 Victoria site last Saturday, and it most definitely will not be our last. Lots of new faces & old, it was incredible to see first hand the impact the Hyrox races have had on people from different backgrounds, ages & abilities.
Our youngest competitor on the day was 19, & our oldest was 61. Shout out Andy Bills!
What is Hyrox?
Hyrox is a global fitness race that combines running with functional exercises, testing your endurance & strength over 8 kilometres of running & 8 functional stations. The runs are split by kilometre followed by a functional workout station, each one tapping into one of the essential movement patterns; push, pull, run, throw, and carry.
What’s the appeal?
Simplicity & inclusivity. Avoiding the typical moves you see at fitness competition Hyrox follows a standardised & accessible format, combining endurance & strength while focusing on non-skill based accessible moves. Putting on an experience that your everyday athletes, elites & spectators can all enjoy.
We’re lucky to have a unique space in the heart of London which allows us to simulate the race with all stations accounted for, including the runs. If you’re booked in for the London race, or just want to come down & see what it’s all about sign up below for priority access.
