Race format
HYROX Las Vegas follows the standard global format: 8 × 1km runs interspersed with 8 fixed workout stations. Desert air is dry even indoors; dehydration risk is higher than it feels because sweat evaporates fast and you don't notice how much you're losing.
The eight stations, in order:
- SkiErg A vertical ergometer simulating cross-country ski double-poling. Station 1: 1,000m for all divisions. : 1,000m
- sled push Athlete pushes a weighted sled across an indoor track. Station 2: 50m total (4 × 12.5m) at division-specific weight. : 50m
- sled pull Hand-over-hand rope pull dragging a weighted sled toward the athlete. Station 3: 50m total (4 × 12.5m) at division-specific weight. : 50m
- burpee broad jump A burpee combined with a forward broad jump, repeated to cover 80m. Station 4. Heart-rate spike point of the race. : 80m
- RowErg A horizontal Concept2 rowing ergometer. Station 5: 1,000m for all divisions. : 1,000m
- farmer's carry A two-handed loaded carry with kettlebells. Station 6: 200m at division weight (32kg/hand for Pro Men). : 200m
- sandbag lunge Walking lunges with a sandbag on the upper back. Station 7: 100m. Quad-burner; rear knee must touch each rep. : 100m
- wall ball Front squat into vertical throw at a target on the wall. Station 8: 75 (women) or 100 (men) reps. The most-feared station. : 75-100 reps
12 weeks.
Engineered for Las Vegas.
Start the race-specific block 12 weeks before race day. Practice your full race-day hydration and electrolyte plan in training at least twice before Vegas. Dry air masks fluid loss until cramping starts, usually around station 5 or 6.

Station strategy: Las Vegas-specific
LVCC's scale is the largest convention footprint on the HYROX US calendar; the run loop covers more distance between some stations than any other US venue. Notes:
- Sip early, sip often: dry air hides sweat loss. Take fluid at every aid point from station 1, not once you feel thirsty.
- Longer transitions: LVCC's hall size means longer walks/jogs between some stations and the run loop. Budget slightly more total time than your predicted-time calculator suggests.
- Static electricity on equipment: dry air plus carpet tile can build a static charge on metal sled handles. Not dangerous, just startling: expect a small shock on first contact.
