The NESCO Center: After a trailblazing debut earlier this year, Hyrox, the world series of fitness racing, is all set to return to Mumbai on Sunday, with an even bigger and more electrifying edition. The NESCO Center, which hosted India’s first Hyrox in May, will once again transform into a pulsating fitness arena, this time welcoming more than 3,200 participants, nearly double the number from the debut race.
Hyrox combines 8 x 1 km runs with 8 functional fitness workouts such as SkiErg, Sled Push, Burpee Broad Jumps, Farmers Carry and Wall Balls. The format, which mirrors races across 65 cities globally, allows participants of all fitness levels to compete shoulder-to-shoulder in Singles, Doubles, Relay and Pro categories.
“This return to Mumbai is more than just another race; it’s proof of a growing fitness movement across India in May, Mumbai made history with its first Hyrox. Just four months later, every category is sold out and participation has doubled. This remarkable growth shows that the fitness community here has not just participated, they have wholeheartedly adopted Hyrox as part of their lifestyle,” said Deepak Raj, Country Head, Hyrox India.
