07
What HYROX division is right for you?
Each HYROX event has three different race divisions – Singles, Doubles and Relay – but all follow a similar format. There are also Open and Pro categories within the singles and doubles divisions, while each is broken down further by age group. This enables athletes to compete alongside all ages, but see how their results compare to competitors of a similar age bracket.
The race itself splits eight functional workout stations with eight 1km runs and all are completed in the same order regardless of division or category. As there’s no time limit, this makes HYROX open to all abilities, while there are easier and harder categories to compete in depending on your fitness and experience. But which division is right for you? And what about the pros? Discover the surprising athletic paths some of HYROX’s top performers took before stepping onto the race floor.
Singles Open
The easier of the two individual formats, Open is a solo event that sees each competitor complete all eight functional workout stations and eight 1km runs. Where it differentiates from the Pro format is the weight of equipment used during five of the eight stations.

How do athletes qualify for the HYROX World Championships?
HYROX competitors start into the race under a Red Bull arch
© Graeme Murray / Red Bull Content Pool
The HYROX World Championships represent the peak of each season, bringing together the world’s fastest racers to compete for the prestigious title of Age Group World Champion.
For the 2024-25 season, qualification was straightforward. Athletes could secure their spot by placing among the top finishers in their age group and division at any global HYROX race. The number of qualification slots varied based on the total number of participants at each event.
Starting from the 2025–26 season, only Pro Division athletes will be eligible to qualify for the World Championships, except for the 60+ Age Categories and Regional Championships (Europe, US & Asia-Pacific), where Open Division athletes can still qualify. Doubles Mixed qualification remains unchanged. These changes are designed to raise the bar and increase the prestige of the event.
