Inputs

Results

Suggested run split5:28

The average split per 1 km run needed to stay on target without overreaching early.

Average station budget4:45

Average target for the seven non-wall-ball stations once Roxzone is removed.

Roxzone budget3:18

Transition budget for the whole race. Faster athletes need this controlled, not rushed.

Wall-ball cueUse repeatable broken sets and avoid chasing hero reps early.

Simple execution cue to anchor your final station when fatigue is highest.

Assumptions

  • This planner assumes HYROX Open standards and uses a simple pacing distribution, not station-by-station biomechanics.
  • Runner-leaning profiles carry more of the finish time through the eight 1 km runs, while power profiles shift more budget to the stations.
  • Treat the wall-ball cue as a control strategy, not a guaranteed split.

FAQ

Who should use the runner profile?

Athletes whose running is clearly stronger than their sled, carry, and wall-ball work should use the runner profile. Balanced is the safer default if you are unsure.

Why is Roxzone separated out?

Transitions can quietly destroy a finish goal. Separating Roxzone stops you from pretending that wasted movement will somehow disappear on race day.
