What is GYMRACE?
GYMRACE is an indoor fitness race organised by the team behind Mud Masters, which has run sports events in the Netherlands and Germany since 2012. Races are held in large indoor venues in the Netherlands, Germany and France, including Utrecht, Amsterdam, Weeze, Duisburg and Paris.
The course has five 1 km runs, 5 km in total. Each run is followed by two stations, and the race ends with a 50 m sprint. The ten stations are a sled push, wall balls, a slam ball carry, a 1,000 m row, kettlebell swings to overhead, a 1,000 m SkiErg, dumbbell farmers lunges, a 2,000 m bike, burpee broad jumps and the final sprint. Athletes race solo, as buddies who split the station work, or in a relay team, in women's, men's, mixed and heavier 'Heavy' categories. The average finish time is about 1 hour 20 minutes and there is no cut-off time. The buddy category is the organiser's suggested entry point for newer athletes.
What is Jakarta Hybrid Race (20FIT)?
The Jakarta Hybrid Race is a hybrid fitness competition organised by 20FIT, a sports and fitness centre in Jakarta whose 20FIT Arena is an official HYROX training club. The 2026 edition, sponsored by Livin' by Mandiri and VISA, runs over a weekend in November at 20FIT Arena.
The race is a simulation of the HYROX format using official CENTR | HYROX equipment. Athletes run 500 m and then complete one workout station, eight times over: SkiErg, sled push, sled pull, burpee broad jumps, rowing, farmers carry, sandbag lunges and wall balls. Four lanes run side by side for head-to-head racing, with electronic timing. Categories are Singles (men and women, Open and Pro) and Doubles (men, women and mixed), with competition weights set by division, and there is a kids' training session. Because runs are shorter than in a full HYROX race, it suits athletes preparing for their first hybrid race as well as experienced racers.
