GYMRACE vs. The Hybrid Games: Distanz, Stationen, Preis & Schwierigkeit im Vergleich (2026-27)

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.

The Hybrid Games is a fitness race series run at indoor venues across the UK. The course alternates ten 600 m runs with ten functional stations and finishes with a 200 m sprint, about 6.2 km of running in total. Stations include an air bike, wall balls, rowing, burpee broad jumps, dumbbell snatches, lunges, a farmers carry, a sled pull, SkiErg and a sled push, with separate weights for men and women.

Entries are available as Male or Female Solo and as Male, Female or Mixed Doubles. Every station is judged, athletes are chip-timed, and the organisers state that there is no cut-off time. Results feed a season leaderboard ranked by age group. Recent and upcoming host cities include Liverpool, Newcastle, Birmingham and Glasgow. It suits athletes who train both running and strength and want a judged race.
