Question

What did your last race weekend actually cost?

The ticket is the number everyone talks about, but it's rarely the biggest cost once you add travel, a hotel, food and the spectator ticket for whoever comes to cheer. If you're happy to share: which race, roughly what the whole weekend cost, and the one thing you'd skip or book earlier next time? It'll help people planning their first trip, and it'll show us where to improve the race cost calculator.

Question

How do you split 100 wall balls without falling apart?

Wall balls come last, after 7 km of running and everything else, and race data says they're where most people lose the most time. I keep seeing different strategies: 10 sets of 10, 25-20-20-15-10-10, unbroken until failure then 5s, or straight into 5s from the first rep. What's your split, and what changed when you started training it fatigued instead of fresh?

Question

What do you wish someone had told you before your first HYROX?

Hey all, Tim here. I built RoxSkin, and I race HYROX as an amateur like most of you. This board is for the stuff you'd normally ask at your gym, or text the one friend who's done a race. No question is too basic. To kick it off: what's the one thing you wish someone had told you before your first race? Gear, pacing, the warm-up, the queue for the toilets, anything. The best answers will end up in our first-race guide, with credit if you want it.
