HYROX time predictor

Estimate HYROX finish time from your average 1km run split, station times, and transitions. Useful for planning pacing and training blocks.

Tool

Inputs → outputs

This page is intentionally practical: get numbers first, then read the how-to.

Inputs

  • Average 1 km run split (mm:ss)
  • Average station time (mm:ss)
  • Transition time (sec) (optional)

Outputs

  • Finish time estimate
  • Runs total
  • Stations total

Examples

5:00/km runs + 3:30 stations
Roughly ~ 1:12–1:18 depending on transitions and station variance.
4:30/km runs + 3:00 stations
Roughly ~ 1:02–1:08 depending on execution and crowding.

Predictor

HYROX finish time (rough)

Input your average 1km run split and average station time. Get a rough finish estimate (use it for planning, not as a promise).

Per transition. Multiplied across the event.

Total estimate

1:16:00

Runs total

40:00

Stations total

28:00

Limitations: station times vary by fitness, technique, and event flow; transitions can balloon in crowded heats. Treat this as a planning baseline.

Assumptions

What this tool assumes

  • Your average station time is a realistic in-race number (fatigue increases station variance).
  • Transitions are consistent (crowding can change this dramatically).

Limitations

What can break it

  • Does not model station-specific weak points (sled push/pull often dominates outcomes).
  • Race flow (heat size, venue layout) can add unexpected transition time.

FAQs

What should I optimize first?

Consistency on the run segments and one station weak point. Small station improvements compound across 8 stations.

How should I pace the first half?

Conservatively. The first 2–3 stations should feel controlled so you can execute late under fatigue.

Why do predictions miss?

Stations degrade under fatigue and transitions expand with crowding. Use the estimate as a planning baseline, not a promise.
