On September 12th, Radix is hosting our first-ever Half-ROX HYROX event! If you’ve been coming to our HYROX classes on Thursday and Saturday, or participating in our Run Club, this is your big chance to show off all the skills you’ve been working on! Remember that our HYROX classes are FREE TRIAL CLASSES, so come check them out, or if you’re already a member, bring a friend so they can see what all the hype is about.
A full HYROX race consists of eight 1km runs split up with different functional fitness stations in between. A Half-ROX is a scaled version of the full HYROX event, so it’s more approachable (but still very hard!) for most people. Reps and distances are lower, but weights remain the same. You can expect your round to take an hour, give or take.
400 meters x 8 is still a lot of running, so if you want to work on your running endurance before the big event, come to our Run Club on Tuesdays at 6:30 pm or Saturdays at 7:45 am. Our Run Club is suited to everyone, regardless of running ability.
Besides running, the 8 stations that make up a HYROX are:
ski erg
sled push
sled pull
burpee broad jumps
rowing
farmer’s carry
weighted lunges
wall balls
Come to our Thursday and Saturday classes to work on these specific skills. But you can’t forget to keep doing strength training! HYROX training PLUS strength training PLUS running is the formula you need to prepare for an amazing race day.

If the race alone wasn’t reason enough to join us, this event also coincides with our 11th anniversary! Stay after the Half-ROX to celebrate your race and join the BBQ Family Lunch in the afternoon! It promises to be a great day full of hard work, sweat and fun.
See you then!
