GYMRACE vs. HYFIT 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.

HYFIT Games is an Indian indoor hybrid fitness race series launched in 2026 by Saurabh Aggarwal and Anee Verma (Bengaluru). Each race combines 200 m runs with six functional stations (dumbbell step-ups, farmer's carry, bear crawl, burpees to plate, front carry + air squats, tyre flips) plus a cognitive memory challenge at start and finish. Divisions cover Open and Pro singles, doubles, parent+kid 'Bloodline' pairs, NextGen (8-15) and Grand Masters (55-84), and a new double-distance '2X' format. The 2026 season spans nine cities (Gurugram, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune, Jaipur, Gandhinagar, Delhi); a 2027 edition is announced for Hyderabad.
