Training for my next Hyrox competition is officially underway, and as a Hyrox beginner (well, it’s my first time solo, at least), one of my main focuses this year has been which of the best cross training shoes I should be lacing up to race.
Hyrox is the definition of cross training — competitors complete eight 1km runs with a functional station sandwiched between each — so your shoe must competently handle different types of multi-directional movement and pace. That means dialing into factors like grip, stack, comfort, weight and cushioning when choosing the best shoe for Hyrox.
