How to find a HYROX doubles partner: every option, comparedThe short answer: ask at your gym first, post in the Instagram or Facebook group for your race, and add the race on a partner app like ROXMATCH, which filters by race, division and goal time. They do not exclude each other, so use more than one. Below, every option compared, then the five things to agree on before you commit.
HYROX Mixed Doubles: the weights, the split, and a realistic timeMixed is the doubles division with the most partner-finding pain, because you need someone of the opposite gender who wants the same race. It is also the one where a smart split makes the biggest difference. We raced our first one in Athens.
Doubles strategy: splitting the stations so nobody blows upIn doubles you both run every kilometer, so the race is won or lost at the stations. The split is the one thing you fully control. Plan it like you mean it.
What is a good HYROX doubles time? Benchmarks by divisionA good doubles time is one you both can hold. But it helps to know where the field sits, so here are the numbers, division by division.
First HYROX: doubles or solo?It is the question every beginner asks. For most people, doubles is the friendlier first race. Here is why, and what it costs you.
Training for doubles when your partner lives in another cityPlenty of doubles pairs live hours apart. That works, as long as you train for the same race instead of two different ones.
Race weekend as a pair: tickets, check-in, start waves, and the things people forgetDoubles has a few extra moving parts before the start gun: two people, two check-ins, two chips, one start time. Here is the order, so nothing goes wrong before you have even started.
Your partner can't make it. Now what?An injury, a last-minute dropout, or two people who just can't agree on a date or a city. It happens to more pairs than you'd think. Your race is usually not lost, but the clock starts the day you find out.
