In 2023 more than 100,000 people took part in a Hyrox race in 17 different countries, with hundreds of thousands more doing the formulaic workout in their local gyms as a way to get in shape.
Beginning in Germany in 2017, Hyrox is fast becoming a global phenomenon, combining short runs with the kind of fitness movements you find in many standard gym workouts. Walk down the road or have a jog around the park and you’re guaranteed to see at least one person with a black Hyrox-branded vest or baseball cap.
