The race is made up of:
- 8 × 1 km runs, each followed by one workout station
- 8 functional stations in a fixed order
- Divisions for Open Singles, Pro, Doubles, Relay and Corporate Relay
There is no qualification required. The format is designed to be accessible, and roughly 98% of entrants finish.

Knowing the station order helps you pace the race. The standard sequence is:
- 1,000 m SkiErg
- 50 m Sled Push
- 50 m Sled Pull
- 80 m Burpee Broad Jumps
- 1,000 m Rowing

Training for HYROX means building aerobic endurance for the 8 km of running, plus strength and efficiency for each station.

How to train for HYROX in Hong Kong
A smart HYROX training plan blends three things:
- Running volume: Build up to 8 km of mixed running, including intervals and steady-state work.
- Station practice: Train each movement with correct form and pacing so you do not burn out early.
- Transitions: Practice moving from running to a station and back again. This is where races are won or lost.
Most beginners see good results with 8 to 12 weeks of structured training. If you already have a CrossFit, functional fitness or running background, you can often get ready in 4 to 6 weeks.

Tips for your first HYROX race
- Pace the runs: It is tempting to sprint the first 1 km. Don’t. Save energy for the later stations.
- Train transitions: Practice going from the treadmill or track straight into a station.
- Know your weights: Men and women use different weights at each station. Train with the race weight.
- Recover well: Sleep, hydration and mobility work matter as much as the sessions themselves.
- Get there early: AsiaWorld-Expo is far from most of Hong Kong. Allow extra time for travel and kit check.
