HYROX announces 2026 U.S. fall season event schedule
The HYROX fitness competition continues to expand its presence, with the 2026 U.S. fall season schedule featuring events across several major cities. The upcoming calendar includes stops in Washington, D.C., in early September, followed by Salt Lake City, Boston, Tampa, Denver, and Dallas through late November.
Coaches and CrossFit gym owners are navigating how to integrate HYROX-specific training—such as running, pacing, and transitions—into existing functional fitness programs. Participants in mixed doubles categories face specific challenges, including the requirement to use men’s weights for certain stations like sled pushes and pulls.
Training recommendations for new participants include utilizing gyms partnered with HYROX to master proper technique for stations like wall balls and sled work, as well as maintaining consistent running endurance to prepare for the eight 1km runs required during the race.
