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 Chicago?

The Hyrox Chicago page has the race facts, which division races which day, and getting to Navy Pier. AthleteField matches athletes by pace, gym, division and race. Same-gym athletes come first, so your gym's crew finds each other before race day. How a good target time is set is one of the most-asked questions we answer.
