HYFIT Games vs Savage Race : distance, stations, prix et difficulté comparés (2026-27)

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.

Savage Race is an American obstacle race series with events currently listed in Florida (Dade City) and Georgia (Dallas), held in spring and autumn. It has received awards from Mud Run Guide and OCR Buddy, including best North American series.

There are two formats. The full Savage Race covers 5 to 7 miles with 25 or more obstacles, including its signature near-vertical slide Colossus, ice baths, fire and mud. Savage Blitz is a shorter option of 3+ miles with 15 to 20 obstacles. Entry includes chip timing, a T-shirt and a medal. Most runners join open heats, while the SavagePRO wave on Saturday mornings competes for overall and age-group awards; there is also a SavageJR race for children and a team option. Runners who complete two or more events in a calendar year qualify for the Savage Syndicate medal. The Blitz suits first-timers, while the full race suits runners with a solid fitness base.
