Hyrox debuts in Greece with Athens, September 5 to 6, 2026, and the city's gyms were programming for it before the race existed. This is a map, not a ranking: every entry below comes from what each gym publishes about its own training, with a link to the page we took it from. If we've missed yours, email hello@athletefield.co.

Last verified: September 4, 2026. Gyms add and drop programming through the season, so if something here has gone stale, tell us and we'll correct it.

Which Athens gyms run dedicated Hyrox programming?

Royal CrossFit (Isaiou 18, Peristeri). A dedicated Hyrox program page: long-duration dynamic workouts and high-intensity functional work built for the race's demands. A CrossFit box that made Hyrox a first-class citizen rather than a side class.

Comradery (Kiprou 14, Tavros, 200 metres from Kallithea metro). Publishes a Hyrox program covering running, sled pushes, rowing and burpees, with standardized workouts so you can track your progress against the same benchmark over time. Standardized benchmarks are underrated: they're how you know your training is working before a race tells you.

Do you need a Hyrox gym at all?

No. The race is eight 1 km runs and eight stations, so what you need is running volume plus regular access to sleds, ergs, a sandbag and a wall-ball target. A Hyrox class mostly buys you three things: pacing practice at race intensity, time on race-standard equipment, and a crew who'll be on the same start line. The station training guide covers what to do with whatever gym you have.

Racing Athens?

The Hyrox Athens page has the race facts and the waitlist. AthleteField matches athletes on real race data, same-gym athletes first, so when the Athens field opens, your gym's crew finds each other before race day. How a good target time is set and what a good Hyrox time is are the two most-asked questions we answer.
