Question 1

Where is the HYROX run club in Vancouver?

Accepted Answer

Our HYROX run club meets weekly at CrossFit BC, 278 East 1st Avenue in Mount Pleasant, Vancouver. Sessions include a mobility primer, race-pace pace groups, and showers afterward. Members and non-members are welcome.

Question 2

How much running should HYROX athletes do per week?

Accepted Answer

In race-specific block, 25–35 km per week split across one long Zone 2 run, one race-pace interval session, one brick session combining running with stations, and one short shakeout or rest day.

Question 3

What is the best HYROX running pace to train at?

Accepted Answer

Train at your goal HYROX run pace — for most age-group athletes that is between 5:00 and 6:00 per km. Pair race-pace 1km repeats with brick sessions that simulate running on fatigued legs after sled or sandbag work.

Question 4

Can I do HYROX training without being a strong runner?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but you'll plateau quickly if running stays an afterthought. Build a 6-week aerobic base with easy Zone 2 runs first, then add race-pace work. Our run club is built for athletes at every starting point, with dedicated pace groups.

Question 5

What are the best running routes near CrossFit BC?

Accepted Answer

False Creek Seawall (9km loop, flat, kilometre-marked) and Stanley Park Seawall (10km) are our top picks for long runs. For intervals, use Hinge Park track or measured 1km stretches in the Mount Pleasant grid right outside the gym.
