Camp includes:
Weekly coached Saturday HYROX sessions (1 session/week) beginning 9/26/26
Homework programming during the week (1 session/week, completed independently at CFWP any time we are open)
Coaching on HYROX movements, pacing, transitions, and race strategy
Opportunities to learn your baselines and identify strengths and weaknesses across common HYROX efforts

What is HYROX?
HYROX is a fitness race that alternates eight 1K runs with eight functional workout stations, including the SkiErg, sled push and pull, rowing, farmer carries, sandbag lunges, burpee broad jumps, and wall balls. HYROX races follow the same format around the world, giving athletes a clear benchmark to train for.
What You’ll Work On
You’ll work on things like:
Running strategy and pacing
Learning your baselines for key movements and efforts
Understanding when to push and when to hold back
SkiErg, Row, Sled Push/Pull, Burpee Broad Jumps, Wall Balls, and carries
Race flow and transitions
Strength, endurance, and work capacity specific to HYROX demands

HYROX rewards athletes who understand pacing as much as fitness. This camp will help you learn where your strengths are, where you lose time, and how to approach race efforts more strategically.
HYROX Sim Recap: August 15, 2026
In August, CrossFit Wash Park hosted a full HYROX Simulation with 39 athletes from CFWP and the greater Denver community taking on all eight rounds of running and HYROX stations.
Athletes could complete the Sim individually or as a doubles team, with Open and Pro divisions represented. The range of athletes made for a great morning: our fastest doubles team finished the full Sim in under an hour, while our fastest solo athletes finished in just over 1:13. Other athletes worked for close to two hours to complete every run and station on their own.
That range is exactly what we want these events to offer. Some athletes came in looking to test their fitness and race for a fast time. Others were taking on a full HYROX-style event for the first time or simply wanted to see what they could do. Throughout the morning, athletes jumped in to support each other, even running alongside those who were still working toward the finish.
The Sim was open to both CrossFit Wash Park members and non-members, giving Denver-area athletes a chance to experience a full HYROX simulation and practice the demands of the race in a supportive training environment.
