Farm Games vs HYROX PFT: distancia, estaciones, precio y dificultad comparados (2026)

The Farm Games is an outdoor functional fitness competition hosted by Farm Fitness at its farm-based training venue near Dunmow in Essex, England. It was first held in 2021 and runs as an annual one-day event.

Teams of six athletes, three women and three men, compete across five workouts named Farm Strong, Hustle & Hay, Field Fury, Yard Work and Harvest Hustle. Each workout tests a different aspect of fitness and is built around farm-inspired equipment and outdoor terrain, with an emphasis on teamwork under pressure. The event is closer to a team fitness competition than a timed running race: there is no fixed run distance, and scoring depends on performance across the workouts. It suits groups from gyms or training clubs who already train together in functional fitness and want an outdoor team competition. Farm Fitness also runs other events on site, including Britain's Fittest Farmer and a 10K.

The HYROX Physical Fitness Test (P'F'T) is a short benchmark workout designed by HYROX to introduce people to the sport and show which race division suits them. It runs during the HYROX gym tour, when HYROX sets up mini events at gyms, and it is also used as a stand-alone training test.

The workout is a 1,000 m run (outdoors or on a treadmill at 2% incline), 50 burpee broad jumps, 100 stationary lunges, a 1,000 m row, 30 hand-release push-ups and 100 wall balls (6 kg men, 4 kg women). HYROX uses the finishing time as a guide: 15-25 minutes points to the Pro division, 25-35 minutes to Singles and 30-45 minutes to Doubles. There are no sleds or heavy carries, so it suits newcomers checking whether they are ready for a first full HYROX race.
