Pro tip: Sled Push and Sled Pull times vary significantly based on floor surface and sled weight at different venues. Don't compare these times across different race locations.

Running Time Targets

Running accounts for 8km of the race (8 x 1km segments). Your running fitness is often the biggest predictor of overall finish time.

Level Average Pace Total Running Time
Beginner 6:00 - 7:00 /km 48:00 - 56:00
Intermediate 5:00 - 6:00 /km 40:00 - 48:00
Competitive 4:30 - 5:00 /km 36:00 - 40:00
Elite 4:00 - 4:30 /km 32:00 - 36:00
Pro 3:30 - 4:00 /km 28:00 - 32:00
Important: HYROX running pace is typically 30-60 seconds slower than your standalone 5K pace due to accumulated fatigue from stations. Plan accordingly.
