Hyrox: the new fitness trend taking over gyms
A competition described as a “global fitness race” is building up a mass following among UK gym-goers.
There are no qualification entry requirements or finishing time restrictions. And each Hyrox race consists of waves of starters every 10 minutes throughout the day, so “there’s no fear of finishing in ‘last’ place”, said GQ. It is an “own-pace, own-race event” where amateurs and pros take part side by side.
More than 175,000 people are due to take part in 65Hyrox races this year, some of which are in major arenas, such as Birmingham’s NEC and London ExCel. Entries to a race in May at London Olympia “sold out months ago”, said Bee in The Times, with some 12,500 people expected to take part.
